Ní Dhomhnaill in Derry

Poet Nuala Ní Dhomhnaill will be giving a lecture in Magee College, Derry, tonight at 7.45pm. She is giving the opening talk in this year’s Éigse Cholm Cille on the challenges of writing poetry in Irish. Saturday will see lectures from, amongst others, Fionntán de Brún, Gréagóir Ó Dúill, a reading from Cathal Ó Searcaigh and a book launch of Breandán Ó Doibhlin’s latest collection of essays, Aistí Critice agus Cultúir 3. Ar bís leis an leabhar sin a fháil!

On another literary note, I will be giving a poetry reading with Louis de Paor, Aifric Mac Aodha and Ailbhe Ní Ghearbhuigh as part of this year’s Dublin Book Festival this Sunday 2pm in Dublin’s City Hall, Dame Street, Dublin 2. It’s Pól Ó Muirí, live in Dublin….
