Boyne Readings/Kieran Furey

Kieran Furey.

Kieran Furey will be the guest reader at the Knightsbridge Village Hall on Thursday the 20th of January. A winner of the Feile Filochta Poem for Europe in 2007 he has published over twenty books to date on everything from poetry to satire to travel. Now living in Co. Longford he is a member of the Lanesboro Writers Group and will be familiar to anyone in receipt of the poetry broadsheet ~Riposte~ and I'm sure many other poetry magazines as well. Spent over six years in Latin America and his poem "El Tren" was the winner of the above competition. Much more information about him over on the Virtual Writer website, just click on the link opposite and Michael Farry has a link on his site as well. The evening commences at 8pm and the entry fee is €5 Euro with tea and biscuits thrown in. What more could you ask for!
