“The geography of my mind is the geography of the world I walk in” – John Moriarty.   The inner world and the outer world are mirrored as we celebrate the life of one of Ireland’s most fascinating intellects. We follow Moriarty’s physical journey from his father’s home in Baile an Locaigh to Mangerton via Dublin, Canada, and Connemara and learn how this paralleled his psychological journey from an inquisitive youth to an utterly unique spiritual, ecological, and philosophical voice.
