Our programme of publications in our 52nd year abounds in fresh energy and variety. There’ll be first collections (John FitzGerald and Audrey Molloy, The Important Things) and a Gallery debut (Annemarie Ní Churreáin), as well as staple fare (new poems by Michelle O’Sullivan, Marina Carr’s The Boy – after Sophocles – and John McAuliffe’s Selected Poems). We look forward also to publishing Intimate City, Peter Sirr’s brilliant essays, a hymn to Dublin, and Thomas McCarthy’s Poetry, Memory and the Party: Journals 1974-2004.
Also planned is Autumn Skies, poets on poems by Derek Mahon, a tribute to appear on what would have been his 80th birthday, and we’ll proudly publish Derek Mahon: The Poems (1961-2020), all he wanted to preserve in its final version.
