Truth is a Five-Letter Word
Three poets at the top of their game read prize-winning and critically acclaimed work riffing on the theme of truth.
Kim Moore’s first collection The Art of Falling (Seren) won the 2016 Geoffrey Faber Memorial Prize. She won a writers Award in 2014, an Eric Gregory Award in 2011 and the Geoffrey Dearmer Prize in 2010.
David Clarke, winner of the Michael Marks Poetry Award 2013 and long listed for the Polari Prize in 2016 reads from his second collection of poems – The Europeans (Nine Arches Press). Timely, wry and close-to-home, these poems explore journeys, ideas of nationhood, difficult histories and the optimism of a time and when Europe and Britain enjoyed a quite different entente cordiale.
Cian Murphy was born and raised in Cork and now teaches at Bristol University. In 2018 his work was long-listed for the Anthony Cronin International Poetry Award and was chosen for Eyewear Publishing’s Best New British & Irish Poets 2018.
