Book synopsis

Kerry on My Mind is a celebration of the place, its poetry, and people. Beginning with a meditation on the meaning of Kerry to its natives, and to outsiders, it meanders through the lives of some of its most famous writers -- John B. Keane, Brendan Kennelly -- remembers its vibrant singing tradition, looks at its modern practices and ancient customs, and examines the pivotal role of the poet/teacher in this community. Some of the interesting side trips include visits with Bodhran makers and the famous Listowel Literary Fair. Gabriel Fitzmaurice has written a number of collections of poetry, including The Space Between, translations, and the critical study The Listowel Literary Phenomenon: North Kerry Writers (both available from Dufour).
