(Bilingual)  Poems in Irish by Aifric Mac Aodha translated by David Wheatley  The award to Aifric Mac Aodha of the 2017 Oireachtas Prize for Poetry confirmed her position in the vanguard of younger Irish women poets.  From a stony-faced DJ with ‘a canny eye’ to a Greek nymph renowned for her chastity, Foreign News is a book whose reach and aims are evident in its richly allusive sequences.  In matching her sense of play and her use of idiom David Wheatley proves himself a perfect counterpart for Aifric Mac Aodha’s poems that resound with longing and a modern sensibility.

Hyperlinks to each title bring users of the site directly to the publisher's web area or to a sales site where books can be purchased.
