Writer’s Rooms

The Guardian has a great section devoted to giving readers a peek inside the work areas of well-known writers. Pictured above is Seamus Heaney’s room, and he notes, “This is a corner of the attic room of our house in Dublin. In the down-slope of the ceiling on the other side there’s a second skylight, much wider and longer and lower than the one in the picture, and through it I have a high clear view of Dublin Bay and Howth Head and the Dublin port shipping coming and going - or not, depending on the weather.”

Other rooms pictured are Jonathan Safran Foer, AS Byatt and David Hare.
