"Daly comments on life as if he was a mystic who had just come through the gates of the City"
Thomas McCarthy
"His voice is a quiet yet provocative one, calling us to have the courage to rediscover the very roots of what it is to be human"
The Merton Journal
Padraig J Daly was born in Dungarvan, Co. Waterford in 1943 and is now working as an Augustinian priest in Dublin. He has published several collections of poetry, among them The Last Dreamers: New & Selected Poems (1999) and The Other Sea (2003), as well as his translations from the Italian of Edoardo Sanguineti, Libretto (1999) and Paolo Ruffilli, Joy and Mourning (reissued 2007). His 2007 collection of poems, Clinging to the Myth refelects on grief and personal bereavement and uses the voices of 18th century Gaelic poetry to respond to the challenges of a post-Christian Ireland.
