Event Description

Sea swimming, our threatened natural world, a woman’s bodily autonomy, bereavement and survival are some of the themes explored by Katie Donovan in her latest collection of poetry May Swim, just published by Bloodaxe Books.

Candid, uncompromising, lyrical and sardonic, her powerful poetry has engaged and enthralled audiences in Ireland and abroad for 30 years. Come to hear this proud citizen of Dún Laoghaire read her poems in the suitably watery environs of the tranquillity pool beside dlr LexIcon. Her new collection, May Swim appears, appropriately, in May of this year, and is inspired by her love of the sea. Copies will be on sale at the event. www.KatieDonovan.com
