Kate O’Shea is probably the best-known unknown poet in Dublin. She has published a chapbook, Crackpoet (Wurm Press, 2013). She was short-listed for the Patrick Kavanagh Award twice in two consecutive years, and also made the short-list for the Cork Literary Review Manuscript Competition, and Erbacce-Press in 2017. Her latest publications were in The Saranac Review, Orbis, and The Stinginng Fly.

Louis de Paor is one of Ireland's leading Irish-language poets. This new dual-language selection is drawn from his collections Cupla Siamach an Ama/The Siamese Twins of Time and Gra fiar/Crooked Love, and includes the sequence 'La da raibh/One day', adapted for a dual-language radio feature with music by Dana Lyn broadcast on RTE in 2021.
