fallow 03

The opening eight pages of my new long poem 'Hallucinations' are featured in the third issue of fallow  (spring 2026). fallow is a biannual journal of literature publishing in Dublin, edited by Ian Maleney and Maija Mäkelä. It is produced by Fallow Media , a literary publisher and digital platform founded by Maleney in 2015 to support and promote adventurous, ambitious work from across the artistic spectrum. It is distinguished by an exploratory, international outlook. (In 2022 Fallow Media produced and released my project  sorry that you were not moved , a longform digital poetry collaboration with Kimberly Campanello, which The Arts Council of Ireland profiled  as a groundbreaking work of digital literature.) fallow 03   also features work from Hélène Bessette (trans. Kate Briggs), François Bonnet (in conversation with Ian Maleney), Mira Mattar, Philippa Snow, Adrian Duncan, Katerina Gogou (trans. Konstantina Georganta), Alice Blackhurst, Charlotte Buckley, a...

Recent Press (Part I): Stride Magazine / The Stinging Fly / Long Poem Magazine / 'The Greece That Hurts'

I'm grateful for attention my work continues to receive from other poets and writers, reviewers and editors, essayists and academics. I'm especially pleased when this is not confined to discussions of the most recent book, but extends to the broader arc of my practice, giving a multifaceted and cumulative reading of it. This is Part One of a two-part post rounding up some commentary that appeared over the first half of 2024. It focuses on reviews and essays on my books or other published work. Part Two ( coming soon now available here ) will log coverage of activities of mine that extend beyond print publishing. * On 11 January 2024, UK-based  Stride Magazine published a review of  Contemporaneous Brand Strategy Document (Veer Books, 2023) which I was happy to note given the attention Stride gives to poetry from small presses and in broadly experimental modes, and especially since in the past the magazine published one of the most comprehensive reviews of my third boo...

gorse no. 2

The second issue of gorse , a wonderful print journal of literature edited in Dublin by Susan Tomaselli, was published last week and includes a new long poem of mine. gorse publishes high quality work in the form of essays, fiction, interviews, poetry, variations of these and much else. It's distinguished by top production values with beautiful cover art, extended knowledge of and interest in a diversity of writing traditions and movements, an experimentalist thrust, cosmopolitanism and wit combined with seriousness of attention, and an interrogative outlook - a confluence of dimensions generally lacking from other Ireland-based journals. Issue 2 also includes work by Claire-Louise Bennett, Matthew Jakubowski, Rob Doyle, Colm O'Shea, SJ Fowler, Dylan Brennan and Lies Van Gasse among others. My poem has title 'Civilisation's Golden Dawn: A Slide Show' and is composed out of specifically-written captions to old family photos of trips to Greece, with fragmen...
