Scope and content

File of letters from Kevin Lehane, whom I fondly recall from his time as manager of the Ambassador and Academy cinemas in Dublin. Lehane writes in detail of the opening night production of The Barracks, adapted for the stage by Hugh Leonard; comments on Irish society and censorship and of the banning the Dark - he mentions that copies of the book are circulating and being widely read in Dublin, and wider comments about McGahern's writing and of Dublin culture of the time.
