Poetry Ireland Review is a journal of poetry. Published three times a year, the Review includes the work of both emerging and established Irish and international poets, essayists, critics and visual artists.
Issue 143, edited by Mícheál McCann, features new poems from Stephen Sexton, Vona Groarke, Emily Cooper, and Paul Muldoon, as well as work from emerging poets Isabel Dwyer and Rafael Mendes, among many others.
Irish-language editor Aifric Mac Aodha’s selection includes poetry from Mícheál Ó hUanacháin and Orlaith Ní Icí. Special additions to the issue include a set of poems from Pulitzer Prize finalist Mary Ruefle and the poetry of the late Palestinian poet Refaat Alareer, translated into Irish by Colm Ó Ceallacháin. It also features a collaborative essay remembering Gerald Dawe.
In this summer issue, there are a total of 18 books reviewed which speak on internationalism, surrealism, and disability, including collections from Elaine Feeney, Ciarán O’Rourke, and Susan Rich, as well as debut collections from Trudie Gorman and Milena Williamson.
Other prose in this issue includes Ellen Orchard’s essay on how a poem can bear witness along with Laoighseach Ní Choistealbha’s essay discussing writing poetry in the Irish language today.
The artwork in issue 143, which weaves together the personal and the collective, is from photographer and visual artist Eslam Abd El Salam, based in Belfast.
