A selection of poems written between 2015 and 2025, Conamara agus Tíortha Eile (Connemara and Other Countries) features work in six languages - Gaelic, English, French, German, Welsh and Breton. The book is a successor to The Birth of Trystan (Curach Bhán 2014), Rún na mBradán (Coiscéim 2016) and The Crooked Road (Curach Bhán 2016). A horizontal, prismatic, and stateless anthology, Conamara agus Tíortha Eile is a record of a decade during which the poet bused, railed, planed, walked and cycled around a half a dozen countries earning a living from pen and flute. This work is dedicated to the poet's grandchildren.
