Southword 22 is online now, and I’m delighted to say that my poem Life is Elsewhere is part of it. There’s also poetry from the likes of Mary Madec, David Mohan, Afric McGlinchey, John W. Sexton, Gerard Smyth and Matthew Sweeney among many others.
There are stories from Danielle McLaughlin and Nuala Ní Chonchúir also, and poetry and prose in Irish and reviews as well.
Plenty to keep you reading!
