It includes the work of 2010 winner of the Hennessy Award for Emerging Poetry, Irish-born Afric McGlinchey, current holder of the Ireland Chair of Poetry Bursary Award Dave Lordan, UK poets Lemn Sisay and Ian Duhig, plus people you’ve never heard of, including the work of New Yorker Korlliss Sewer, about whom editor Peadar O’Donoghue is “very excited”.
