Queer Love talk to take place

An anthology which aims to redress the lack of acknowledgement of the LGBTQI+ community in Irish literary will be the focus of an upcoming virtual event.

Paul McVeigh, the editor of ‘Queer Love: An Anthology of Irish Fiction’, will be joined by three of the collection’s contributors, James Hudson, Emer Lyons and Shannon Yee for a conversation.

The event, which is being organised by West Cork Literary Festival, will take place over Zoom on 20 April at 7pm.

'Queer Love: An Anthology of Irish Fiction' was published by Southword Editions in 2020.

The collection includes a mixture of established writers of international standing, writers who have been making a splash in recent years and new emerging writers.
