As part of the Lucan Festival 2013 the poet Eamonn Lynskey is hosting a poetry evening in the Kenny’s in Lucan Village on Tuesday 24th September. Proceedings start at around 7.30pm and I’ll be one of the featured readers along with Paul Bregazzi, John Kelly, John Murphy, Ross Hattway and Liz McSkeane.
Eamonn’s poetry has been published widely since its first appearance in the 1980s in the Irish Press ‘New Irish Writing’ page edited by the late David Marcus. His work has appeared in Poetry Ireland Review, Cyphers, SHOp, The Stinging Fly, The Stony Thursday Book, and Crannóg and many others. His first collection, ‘Dispatches & Recollections’, was published by Lapwing (Belfast) in 1998 and his second ‘And Suddenly the Sun Again’, was published in 2010 by Seven Towers.
(And the rest of us on the bill aren’t bad either).
If you’re free, do come along and have a drink and a listen!
