GBS bust (Carlow Co. Library)
This bust of George Bernard Shaw was sculpted by Sava Botzaris (1894-1965) who was a native of the former Yugoslavia. G.B. Shaw's ties with Carlow are particularly noteworthy. His mother Lucinda Elizabeth Gurly was daughter of Thomas Gurly of Carlow. Shaw inherited property in Carlow on his mother's side. He donated the building known as the "Assembly Rooms" in Dublin Street to the Technical Instruction Committee later the Vocational Education Committee.It served as the Carlow Vocational School until the mid 1970's when it became the County Library. Shaw also donated rents from his other properties and all these became part of the Civic Improvement Fund for the town of Carlow.

Signed title page of -Other People's Houses- by Vona Groarke.
Other People’s Houses, Gallery Press 1999, was received by the Times Literary Supplement as a remarkable achievement, praising its author’s remarkably assured and beautifully regulated voice. The collection uses the image of the house, and houses themselves, as the setting for the enactment of particular lives. It ranges from the witty Open House through richly suppressed narratives such as Domestic Arrangements, to the more sombre Holiday Home.
