32 The Stony Thursday Book No. 8 (New Series) Edited by Ciaran O’Driscoll Thurs 15th Oct 7pm Daghdha Space Founded in 1975 by John Liddy and Jim Burke, The Stony Thursday Book is now thirty-four years of age. The current issue features work from poets of international stature and fame, such as Fleur Adcock, Penelope Shuttle, the Scots Gaelic poet Aonghas MacNeacail, Pulitzer Prizewinners Paul Muldoon and Robert Hass, and Limerick’s master craftsman, Desmond O’Grady. Many well-known Irish and UK poets are represented, and there are translations from eminent Central European poets: Slovenians Iztok Osojnik, Taja Kramberger and Veronika Dintinjana, as well as Lidija Dimkovska, a Macedonian poet now residing in Ljubljana. A number of the poets included are participants in this year’s festival. There is a generous selection of poems from less prominent voices, poets beginning to come to public notice. Editor Ciaran O’Driscoll writes in his Preface: “One of the pleasures of editing this issue was to be moved, or amused, or struck with admiration by, a poem from someone I was not previously aware of, or whose work I only vaguely knew. I hope that the reader will derive as much pleasure from browsing, as I did from editing, The Stony Thursday Book, New Series, No 8.” Friday 16th Oct 7pm Daghdha Space Life Monitor Published by: Three Spires Press Ciaran O’Driscoll Life Monitor Th Life Monitor Poems Ciaran O’Driscoll Ciaran O’Driscoll Ciaran O’Driscoll was born in Co Kilkenny in 1943, and lives in Limerick.
