Three is a magic number: Ciaran Berry, Medbh McGuckian and Conor O’Callaghan will read from their respective collection in Hodges Figgis on Dawson Street, Dublin 2.
Meath- based poetry publisher The Gallery Press, which has published titles by every major Irish poet from Seamus Heaney and Paul Muldoon to Eiléan Ní Chuilleanáin and Paula Meehan, will launch three new collections of poetry by three of Ireland’s most exciting talents in poetry.
Dublin- born, US- based poet Ciaran Berry will read from The Dead Zoo, his second collection of poetry.
Belfast poet Medbh McGuckian will read from The High Caul Cap, a collection threaded with an elegiac tone, described by her publisher as a collection in which “…she focuses on the illnesses and deaths of friends and on her mother’s long, painful decline.” and Manchester- based Dundalk native Conor O’Callaghan– who yours truly interviewed earlier this year for The Irish Post– will read from The Sun King, his fourth collection of poems.
