IRISH PAGES is a biannual journal, edited in Belfast and publishing, in equal measure, writing from Ireland and overseas.
Its policy is to publish poetry, short fiction, essays, creative non-fiction, memoir, essay reviews, nature-writing, translated work, literary journalism, and other autobiographical, historical, religious and scientific writing of literary distinction. There are no standard reviews or narrowly academic articles. Irish Language and Ulster Scots writing are published in the original, with English translations or glosses.
IRISH PAGES is a non-partisan, non-sectarian, culturally ecumenical, and wholly independent journal. It seeks to create a novel literary space in the North adequate to the unfolding cultural potential of the new political dispensation. The magazine is cognisant of the need to reflect in its pages the various meshed levels of human relations: the regional , the national , the continental , and the global.
This issue features:
•Patricia Craig on coming-of-age in Belfast and Donegal
•Michael Hamburger on the British literary scene
•Tim Robinson in praise of space
•A short story by William Trevor
•Poems from Russia and Holland
•Glenn Patterson on re-branding the paramilitaries
•Essays by Denis Sampson, John Montague, Daniel Weissbort & Chris Agee
