Boyne Berries 15

Boyne Berries 15


Another striking cover on what is the last issue to be edited by Michael Farry and he ends with a fine poem "Dundareirk Graveyard, Cork". His eye for detail or descriptive writing is to the best and this issue has more than a few poems or pieces of prose that you'll go back to for a second read. Contributions from Ireland and abroad with more than a few from the USA and I have to say the one that got me or made me read again was by Irene Mosvold "The Snaring of the Snark". Kentucky, I think. A local one and given the almost centenary of the first world war is "The Enlisted" by Padraic Ó Dowd of Trim and well worth a read or two. "Bear Trap" by Colin Dardis is just waiting to grab you and a copy of this issue will only set you back €8 with details on how to purchase over to the right on the Boyne Writers website or on Michael Farry's blogg.If you should find yourselves in Trim the book shops in the town are sure to have a copy.
