Do check out our latest review! @timrelf is 'in Praise of' Andrew McDonnell's '55 Devotionals (Against Erasure)' @brokensleep, finding a 'vein of joy, gratitude and wonder' running through the work.

Lovely to hear @JessicaTraynor6 on @RTEArena last night. She and Thomas McCarthy were reading some of their favourite winter poems and discussing them with host Rick O'Shea. Jessica also read a poem from her fourth collection New Arcana (from 22:20).
