THE THIRTEENTH MOON by Moyra Donaldson is now available for pre-order www.doirepress.com/books/poetry...

The Thirteenth Moon - Doire Press

The Thirteenth Moon explores the interplay between the world and the mind, between silence and voice. Heimlich and unheimlich. Climate change, war, personal loss, ageing — what seemed to be permanent now feels transitory, like the different phases of the moon. The poems in this collection reflect the poet’s belief that it is through the power of creation, the power of our art, that we can navigate a way to live in the present.

HOW TO MAKE LOVE TO A COLONISED BODY BY NITHY KASA NOW AVAILABLE FOR PRE-ORDER!!

How to Make Love to a Colonised Body - Doire Press

How to Make Love to a Colonised Body is the second collection of poetry by Congolese-Irish poet Nithy Kasa. Written during the time of lock-up, followed by subsequent release, the collection addresses matters in our relationships, both personal and political, with a focus on the two nations Nithy calls home. Holding on to the beauty that exists in nature and in life, these poems play with a language that is second-hand to Nithy. All the while she is testing herself and mingling clear-cut contemporary tones with that of the dreamy traditional Irish poetry
