Publisher's Synopsis

THE WORD ARK is a pocket-sized anthology
of poems responding to our fellow creatures, great
and small, published at a time when not only the
animal kingdom but the world at large is beset by
dangers on an unprecedented scale. It is, in the
words of its editor Pat Boran, "An invitation to look
more intently at the world beyond ourselves, an
external balance to our inner turmoil."
Featuring contributions from 45 poets - including
Paula Meehan, Patrick Deeley, Paddy Bushe,
Doireann Nì Ghrìofa, Francis Harvey, Mark Roper, Eva
Bourke and Boran himself - and beautifully illustrated
by Boran's father-in-law, Sicilian artist Gaetano
Tranchino, The Word Ark is a highly personal and
timely response to a crisis, and an opportunity in
these troubling times to love, laud and celebrate.
