Triskel Arts Centre, Cork – Saturday, April 25, 9pm

Join us for the launch of UCC’s revamped literary magazine, The Quarryman. First published in the 1920s & dormant for 30 years, UCC’s inaugural graduates of the MA in Creative Writing have worked hard to revive and invigorate the journal, with contributions by local and alumni poets Greg Delanty, William Wall, Nuala Ní Dhomhnaill, Eiléan Ní Chuilleanáin and Gerry Murphy, as well as work from newly-graduated writers.
Booker-nominated Donal Ryan has described the new Quarryman as “a perfect reading excursion, its pages inhabited by cyber-stalkers, bereft lovers, dying crows, web-less spiders, disillusioned radicals, illicit cadavers, and people treading the uncertain pathways of life”.

Launch at Triskel Arts Centre, Saturday, April 25, 9pm. This is the final event of the Cork World Book Fest. All very welcome.
