SALMON POETRY

(of Knockeven at the
Cliffs of Moher in
County Clare, Ireland)

invites you to celebrate
the publication of
"Uttering Her Name" by the
Irish poet Gabriel Rosenstock

http://www.salmonpoetry.com/uttering.html

The event will take place on Thursday the 15th of October at 6:30 p.m.
in The Unitarian Church, 112 West St. Stephen’s Green, Dublin 2,
Ireland.

"Uttering Her Name" consists of spontaneous, ecstatic utterances in a
neo-bhakti style, that is to say a modern slant on those poems of
intense devotion which are still read and chanted in India today.

David Butler, in Poetry Ireland Review, wrote:  "With more than one
hundred books to his name, Rosenstock has set himself up as something
of a Gaelic shaman, as likely to invoke Buddha or Xolotl as any
chthonic Celtic deity."

Pádraig de Paor, in Poetry International, wrote:  "Rosenstock is so
famously difficult to pin down, that one is slow to try to describe
him at all.  Indeed, this foxy elusiveness may be his defining
feature."

Gabriel Rosenstock has authored more than 160 books!  "Uttering Her
Name" is his début volume in English.
