    I run a PDF magazine on absurdist literary theory in the US. Recently I started getting a lot of downloads from Dublin. Does anyone know if there's an absurdist writers movement occuring in Ireland? Anyone know how to contact them?

    Might just be renewed interest in the absurd as people are becoming aware of it again with the Beckett centenary festival that occurred recently.

    Yes, or it could be a book club are reading an absurdist book this month and did a Google for extra reading material.

    You should put a little note up wherever you're hosting the PDF asking whoever's downloading it to get in touch, solve the mystery at source.

    I did write to a few people who signed up for the mailing list. They said they didn't know any other writers around into absurdism. But I've had about 10 or 12 just pop up in one day.

    If you see an absurdist, tell them to call me. Hahahaha

    Thanks

    I'm guessing that's it there in his signature.
