About this Event
This celebratory anthology explores human connection through forty
poems carefully curated by the host of the internationally acclaimed
Poetry Unbound podcast.
With an observant eye, Pádraig Ó Tuama shares an enlightening meditation
on each poem, revealing the ways we relate to each other, the world around
us and ourselves.
Blending humour with insight, tension with tenderness, complexity with care,
this collection articulates the power of poetry itself; it illuminates aspects of
the human condition, particularly the ways we are inextricably linked to each
other, and provides inspiration for grounded self-reflection.
44 Poems on Being with Each Other features a remarkable and refreshing
range of exceptional poems from around the world including contributions
from Wendy Cope, Constantine P. Cavafy, Chen Chen, Joy Harjo, Patricia
Smith and many more. It is an anthology that will delight readers just as
Pádraig’s podcast has done for millions around the world.
