No references found | As part of Dublin's literary scene of the late 1960s and early 1970s, much of which revolved around pubs and drinking, O'Faolain's circle included Mary Lavin, John McGahern, Patrick Kavanagh, Leland Bardwell, Myles na Gopaleen (Brian O'Nolan), Louis MacNeice, Seamus Deane and Anthony Cronin. Whether by happenstance or design, while the Abbey was presenting Boucicault's Myles-na-Coppaleen upstairs, the Peacock Theatre downstairs--the Abbey's experimental wing--was mounting an adaptation of At Swim-Two-Birds, by Flann O'Brien, better known by the nom de plume Myles Na Gopaleen (a variation of Boucicault's spelling), whose Irish Times column, "Cruiskeen Lawn" was the "Doonesbury" of its time. O'Brien, a novelist and satirist, was actually three in one--an entity the novelist Dermot Bolger has called "that wondrous multi-layered mind which singularly comprised the Unholy Trinity of Flann O'Brien, Brian O'Nolan and Myles na Gopaleen. |
