Book Club @ UCH Welcomes John Creedon for an Evening of Stories and Conversation

Book Club @ UCH welcomed acclaimed broadcaster and author John Creedon to the University Concert Hall on Saturday evening, 24 October, for a special event celebrating his latest memoir, This Boy’s Voice, in conversation with RTÉ presenter Miriam O’Callaghan.

The evening offered audiences an opportunity to hear John reflect on his adolescence and early adulthood against the backdrop of a rapidly changing Ireland in the 1970s and 1980s. Through personal memories and observations of the people and places around him, John shared stories from a formative period in his life and the experiences that helped shape his distinctive voice as a broadcaster and writer.

This Boy’s Voice follows on from his earlier memoir, This Boy’s Heart, continuing the story of his early years and his journey towards finding his place in the world.

Known for his much-loved RTÉ Radio 1 broadcasts, acclaimed television series and award-winning books, John has built a reputation for capturing the character, history and everyday stories of Ireland. The conversation with Miriam O’Callaghan brought these themes to life, making for a memorable evening of storytelling and reflection.

Book Club @ UCH continues to bring celebrated writers and engaging conversations to Limerick audiences, creating opportunities to connect with the stories and voices shaping Irish cultural life.
