Event Description

DCU’s Professor Dermot Diamond explores the scientific ideas shaping Flann O’Brien’s work, where science is placed in surreal contexts yielding absurd results.

This distinctive method permeates much of his writings, culminating in his acclaimed novel ‘The Third Policeman’, his most striking example of scientific imagination.
