Smithereens Press Chapbooks SP8- Dordéan, do Chroí - A Hummingbird, your Heart | Page 40

A meditation on the relationship between creativity, parenthood, the female body, and the natural world, Dordán, do Chroí ¦ A Hummingbird, your Heart is Doireann Ní Ghríofa's first duallanguage publication. It offers moments of intense pain and longing condensed into a chapbook of poems each 'so vivid, so slight'. Doireann Ní Ghríofa's poems have appeared in literary journals in Ireland and internationally. The Arts Council has twice awarded her bursaries in literature. Her Irish language collections Résheoid and Dúlasair are both published by Coiscéim. Earlier this year, she was nominated for a Pushcart Prize (USA) and her pamphlet of poems in English Ouroboros was longlisted for The Venture Award (UK). www.doireannnighriofa.com http://smithereenspress.com [email protected]
