Ailbhe Ní Ghearbhuigh’s collections Péacadh (2008) and Tost agus Allagar (2016) were published by Coisceim. The latter won the Michael Hartnett Award in 2019. A bilingual collection, The Coast Road, was published by Gallery Press, and includes English translations by thirteen poets. Dánta Andrée Chedid, translations from the French, was published in 2019 by Cois Life as part of their ‘File ar Fhile’ series.
“Ní Ghearbhuigh’s aesthetic is essentially that of the realist and her genius for succinct narrative is one of her primary gifts as a poet.” – Proinsias Ó Drisceoil, Poetry Ireland Review

Leanne O’Sullivan has published four poetry collections with Bloodaxe, Waiting for My Clothes (2004), Cailleach: The Hag of Beara (2009), winner of the Rooney Prize for Irish Literature in 2010, The Mining Road (2013) and A Quarter of an Hour (2018). She received the Ireland Chair of Poetry Bursary Award in 2009 and the Lawrence O’Shaughnessy Award for Irish Poetry in 2011.
“At once tender, exploratory and grace-filled, this finely orchestrated collection attests to the wholeness of natural life and, resonant with folkloric wisdom, it re-awakens the spirit to a fresh sense of the mystery and precariousness of our world. It is an astonishing achievement.” – Maurice Riordan, Co-Judge of the Farmgate Café National Poetry Award in March 2019
