The Irish Times
What does it mean to write hidden or obscured histories? Using as a springboard the words of Patricia Smith who indicated that ‘the job of the poet is to be a witness’, award-winning poet and librettist Annemarie Ní Churreáin reads from Ghostgirl – her pamphlet commission responding to archival records of the Stranorlar Mother & Baby Home, Donegal. Ghostgirl was described by Poetry Ireland Review as ‘one of the most important poetry pamphlets published in contemporary Ireland, the kind of text you could invoke as evidence for poetry as a constructive, transformative force.’
