Roy Foster
Last year, poet in residence Martina Evans gave a reading from her award-winning narrative poem The Coming Thing, a ‘mind-spinning’ epic that follows a young woman’s life amid the punk scene in 1980s Cork.
This year, Evans returns to the Festival to offer a preview of her new work, Drunken Driving, a sequel to The Coming Thing set in Pentonville Prison and due to be published by Carcanet next year.
