Brian Patten 1946 - 29 September 2025
Eamon Carr and I had the pleasure of publishing beautiful poems by Brian in Capella.
I read with him in Dublin, Liverpool and Edinburgh. He was the 'marvellous boy' of the 60s and early 70s, an influential figure and a friend.
May he rest in peace.
Audrey Molloy's third poetry collection, Fallen, is available to order now: gallerypress.com/product/fall...
From the opening line of Fallen there is a sense of danger and intimacy. What does it mean to be a fallen woman? And can she ever redeem herself?
