Featuring readings from three wise, fresh and luminous poets, this is sure to be an unforgettable evening. We are thrilled to welcome Eiléan Ní Chuilleanáin, one of Ireland’s most eminent poets, whose poems were described by Seamus Heaney as “at once plain as an anecdote told on the doorstep and as haunting as a soothsayer’s greeting.” She reads alongside sensitive, imaginative and daring, Mícheál McCann and Mark Roper. These three poets demonstrate the scope, depth and power of poetry in Ireland today, in work that is intricately balanced and full of life. Organised and introduced by Rosamund Taylor.
