Against the Current:
a night of candle-lit poetry and Spanish guitar
Nessa O'Mahony lives in Dublin. She is the author of Bar Talk, (iTaLiCs Press 1999), Trapping a Ghost (Bluechrome,2005) and a verse-novel In Sight of Home (Salmon Press 2009), described by Joseph O'Connor as 'a work of great beauty ... moving, powerful ... audaciously imagined and achieved.'
John McKeown has three poetry collections in print: Amour Improper (2004), Looking Toward Inis Oirr, which won the South Tipperary Arts Chapbook Prize 2004 and Sea of Leaves (Waterloo Press, 2009). His next collection is forthcoming from Salmon Press in 2011. John has also collaborated with Leo O'Kelly of Tir na nÓg on an album of songs- Will.
Naomi Foyle grew up in Liverpool and Saskatchewan and now lives in Brighton. She is the author of The Night Pavilion, an Autumn 2008 PBS Recommendation and The World Cup (2010). Also from Waterloo Press, her illustrated ballad pamphlet Grace of the Gamblers is a rollicking retelling of the life and legend of sea-faring chieftain Granuaile.
