Abstract
As part of Manx Litfest 2016 and a forerunner for a planned Manx Radio podcast of Malcolm Lowry's 'Elephant and Colosseum': Cian Quayle, Jane Killey and Doug Sandle (the author of the podcast transcript) were invited to take part in a discussion with broadcaster Roger Watterson on Manx Radio's Sunday Opinion. The contributors discussed Malcolm Lowry's life and writing and its connections with the Isle of Man, which feature in 'Hear Us O Lord from Heaven Thy Dwelling Place' (1961) with specific reference to Elephant and Colosseum.

Description
Quayle's invitation to participate in this broadcast emerged as a result of his research into the writing of Malcolm Lowry. Quayle featured an extract from Lowry's story 'Elephant and Colosseum' in his 2003 catalogue for the public, site-specific artwork 'Return Ticket' (Manx National Heritage & Isle of Man Arts Councl). In 2009 Quayle took part in the exhibition 'Under the Volcano' (curated by Bryan Biggs) at the Bluecoat, Liverpool. The exhibition was accompanied by a book publication entitled 'From the Mersey to the World' (eds. Bryan Biggs and Helen Tookey) published by the Bluecoat and Liverpool University Press.
