A unique book published in associatin with Art for Amnesty. Anything Can Happen begins with an essay by Seamus Heaney written after September 11th, which was updated when the war in Iraq began and revised again for this edition. One of the main features of the book is 'Horace and the Thunder' a poem by Heaney, inspired by Horace, writing 200 hundred years ago in Rome. Heaney's work shown how relevant Horace's vision remains and encourages the reader to realise this poem could have been written in modern day Beghdad. The feature which makes Anything Can Happen unique, is that with help of Marco Songanitzi of UCD, the book contains numerous translations of Heaney's poem, making the book accessible and poignant as warring nations are able to sit side by side in peace.
