Aiséirí - Alex Hijmans (2011)

San fhíseán gairid seo a taifeadadh sa Bhrasaíl, labhraíonn Alex Hijmans faoin gcéad úrscéal atá scríofa aige, Aiséirí (Cois Life, 2011) a chuireann síos ar bhean óg as an Ísiltír a fhaigheann post i siopa caifé i nGaillimh. D'fhiafraíomar d'Alex, tharla gur bhunaigh sé féin siopa caifé Gaelach i nGaillimh fad a bhí sé ann, cé gaol a bhí idir an taithí sin agus an scéal seo.

In this short video recorded in Brasil, Alex Hijmans talks about his first novel, Aiséirí (Cois Life, 2011), about a young woman from the Netherlands who gets a job in a coffee shop in Galway city. As Alex himself opened just such an Irish-speaking coffee shop in Galway during the time he spent there, we asked him how closely Aiséirí was based on his own experiences.
