William Butler Yeats (1865-1939) is Ireland‟s most famous poet and one of the most significant poets of the nineteenth and twentieth century. He lived through a period which saw the revival of Irish culture, the struggle for independence and the establishment of the Irish State.

Ireland in Germany Ireland in Berlin Thursday 17 November: Book Launch – Anne Enright “Anatomie einer Affäre” The Embassy of Ireland is pleased to host the Berlin launch of the German translation of Anne Enright‟s “The Forgotten Waltz” A brief moment, an exchange of glances at a garden party, and already the foundation stone for a stormy affair is laid. But what happens when this results in the break-up of two marriages and the secret love becomes routine? Anne Enright is known for the ruthless implacability with which she dissects relationships. All it takes is a gesture, a look, a comment on the furnishing in a dreary hotel room, and it is clear that the lovers are heading for the abyss of everyday normality. ‘The Forgotten Waltz’ is a worthy successor to the award-winning novel ‘The Gathering’: shockingly open, subtle and so psychologically precise that escape is impossible. One of Ireland‟s leading contemporary authors, Anne Enright was born in Dublin and now lives in Bray, Co. Wicklow. Her last novel “The Gathering” won many accolades including the Irish Novel of the Year, the Irish Fiction Award and the 2007 Man Booker Prize. The launch, which will include readings in both English and German by the author and translator (Hans Christian Oeser), and a discussion, will take place at the Embassy on Thursday 17 November from 19.30 -21.30.
