Poetry Reading: Núala Ní Dhómhnaill
Butler Gallery
Thursday 16 April
11.00 – 12.30 and 14.00 – 15.30

Núala Ní Dhómhnaill is an animated reader of her poetry which juxtaposes folkloric motifs with modern life. There is a fine sense of humour to her work along with a feisty strain of feminism. Ní Dhómhnaill’s portrait by Barrie Cooke is one of those exhibited as part of the Barrie Cooke: Portraits exhibition at the Butler Gallery and on this occasion the poet reads from her repertoire in Irish and English including her most recent publication, The Fifty Minute Mermaid.

Booking essential. Please call the Gallery on 056 7761106 for more information and to book a place.
