Marcus Mac Conghail Image Name: Marcus Mac Conghail Description: Marcus Mac Conghail

An tseachtain seo labhrann an file Marcus Mac Conghail le Tristan Rosenstock mar gheall ar a chnuasach nua filíochta Spásas. Míníonn sé gur ar mheaisín páirceála a chonaic sé an focal sin den chéad uair, agus gur le linn spásais a éiríonn leat tabhairt faoi rudaí nár críochnaíodh, rudaí nár tosnaíodh, agus gur as spásas a tháinig an leabhar nua seo.

This week’s guest is poet Marcus Mac Conghail, who discusses his new collection Spásas with presenter Tristan Rosenstock.  He explains how he first encountered this term, which means reprieve, on a parking meter and how reprieves can allow us time to complete things, begins new things, and how this collection of poems emerged from a spell of reprieve.
