We've got four great poems by young Irish writers, courtesy of Paper__Lanterns journal, for you to enjoy this Sunday morning
THE IRISH LITERARY scene has long been a source of national pride, but it’s in particularly rude health at the moment. Yet with so many books to catch up on, it can be easy to lose track of what’s out there.
The taster from a novel, poem, essay or short story should spur you on to find out more about the writer and their work. “Paper Lanterns publishes work by and for teenagers, as well as older YA lovers. The journal is divided into three sections; creative writing and art, features, and book reviews, with at least half of contributors to be under the age of 19. Thanks to the support of the Arts Council, Paper Lanterns is able to bring you 72 pages of content in the printed journal every quarter.
