The Wheel was a self-published collection of five essays that emerged from an early-2011 reading group.

The Wheel was a critical project that took place throughout the Spring of 2011. It featured new essays by Imelda Barnard, Seán O’Sullivan, Adrian Duncan & Marta Fernandez Calvo, Emma Dwyer, Rebecca O’Dwyer, and was curated by Seán O’Sullivan.

The project was formed as an invited reading and discussion group, which would provide a documentary outlet for a selected group of emerging critics. The group debated the notion of an ethics surrounding failure, and each person was asked to reply to the discussions with either an essay or a recorded exchange. The publication is fully illustrated, and was produced in a limited edition of 100 copies.

The Wheel was supported by Dún Laoghaire-Rathdown County Council Arts Office.
