Paul Durcan live - a truly unmissable event.
Paul Durcan is an Irish poet, author of many critically acclaimed volumes of poetry. He has long been celebrated for a lyrical, freewheeling style that rejoices in the ordinary pleasure of daily life while still fiercely addressing his country's most pressing political concerns.
Durcan has also acquired a reputation for being something of a performance artist, bringing a wild vibrant energy to his readings that raises them to the level of a dramatic event. But it is Durcan's poetry that has always held the spotlight.
"His readings are famous."
James Simmons, The Spectator
"The dislocated, conversational vernacular of his zany verse-narratives made him an excellent performer of his own work, associating him with performance poets such as Allen Ginsberg and the Liverpool Beat poets rather than the mainstream."
Bernard O'Donaghue, Times Literary Supplement
"One of the most original and undaunted imaginations at work."
Seamus Heaney |
