Rick Gekoski asks where a copy of James Joyce's childhood poem Et Tu Healy might be found.

Rick Gekoski asks where a copy of James Joyce's childhood poem Et Tu Healy might be found and how much one might be worth.

Series of programmes in which antiquarian book dealer Rick Gekoski tells the stories that lie behind five very different missing works of art. 

Written by James Joyce in 1891 when he was just nine years old as a protest at the death of the Irish nationalist leader Charles Parnell, the poem Et Tu Healy was printed by his proud father and distributed to friends and family; even the Pope was sent a copy. 

But it was never published, and, apart from three lines, no copy of it has ever been found. Rick Gekoski asks where might one be, and, if one were to be found, how much it might be worth.

A Pier production for BBC Radio 4.
