      That in itself could be a poem. And he's right, most poetry do come out of memories. They're kind of autobiographical in some ways.

    Heaney is fascinating. His introduction to his version of Beowulf is heavy duty just by itself. As for fake news purveyor and serial sex harasser Charlie Rose, good riddance, big fake.

      @@jonharrison9222 PBS Charlie Rose was a serial sex harasser of women, and fake news purveyor PBS protected him for decades. How you made the jump to President Trump is one of those fascinating moments in Trump Derangement Syndrome that I am sure some enterprising scientist will study. But now that you mention him, I think the connection here between lawless PBS and serial sex harasser Charlie Rose and Seamus Heaney and Beowulf is that President Trump is the modern incarnation of Beowulf. He is here to heroically slay the evil bureaucratic dragon that has gone rogue and started eating the people it was supposed to protect. So yeah, Trump. He's the hero of this story.

    What a great, thoughtful interview. Rose actually has meaningful, interesting questions and doesn't cut Heaney off with his own pre-scripted, sensationalistic interrogatory agenda like so many other talk show hosts do. You can tell that Rose has a true sensitivity and appreciation of Heaney and what he is saying and responds based on what Heaney says, not just what he has already decided that he wants to ask. It seems like most of this should be par for the course in a talk show interview, but sadly, it's quite rare.

      @bluebellbeatnik4945 I wasn't aware of that at the time and I am not saying that he should be brought back but that doesn't mean that his interviews weren't good. There's this adult concept called nuance that you don't seem to have grasped yet.

    Does anyone else notice that Charlie Rose seemingly deliberately mispronounces words, specifically the names of his guests? Seamus 'Haney' he says. Like, that's not his accent or anything - just a willful wrongness. It's weird.
