This weeks guest is poet Frank Golden.
Dublin-born poet, novelist and artist Frank Golden has been living in Co. Clare for the bones of twenty years. Salmon Poetry published his The Interior Act in 1999, and other work includes the novel, The Two Women of Aganatz, On Route to Leameneh and In Partial Settlement. More recently he has had solo exhibitions of his paintings and has worked on film projects. The recent launch of his new collection, In Daily Accord, comprised a three-voice reading of the greater part of the poems against a backdrop of specially-composed piano music and slide projections of his works.
