Niall MacMonagle asks, Why Poetry? [Ireland]:
Poetry, one of the oldest of art forms, is something that we've all encountered in school and it's something that we all have an opinion about. But in adult life do we take it or leave it? Do we read the poems on the DART, in the newspapers, do we steer clear of the poetry bookshelves in the Library or book shop? As part of the Poetry Now Festival, teacher and editor Niall MacMonagle will give a talk on why he thinks that poetry matters. This talk is aimed at the reluctant or indifferent reader of poetry and will include a discussion of poems by poets featured in this year's Festival.
1.15 pm, Thursday 24 March, County Hall, Marine Road, Dún Laoghaire
