JOHN NOONAN, A TRIBUTE
A tribute from Christopher Biek
Hi Mario,
I am not sure if you remember me but I am that fellow who came over from the states looking for storytellers about a year ago. My name is Christopher and you sent me on a quest to find John (Jack) Noonan. I did end up connecting with him and we had a lovely interview which I still have. I recently found his death notice while googling him, which made my heart heavy. I am contacting you in regards to an ethnographic fiction piece that I wrote based solely off his pictures and the interview we had. I have no real idea how his last days were, but that is the fictional part. I was wondering if you were interested in have either the interview or the piece I wrote. I wouldn’t normally give the interviews out but I feel like if you wanted it, it would be appropriate for your history of Kildare.
Here is the link to the blog post I wrote which includes the story:
