Rory Brennan has published half a dozen collections of poetry and numerous reviews and articles.

He was born and raised in Dublin where he attended Trinity College. He taught abroad for several years in places as various as Morocco and Sweden.

Rory Brennan鈥檚 awards range from one in memory of Patrick Kavanagh (1978) to the W. B. Yeats Prize of the New York Yeats Society (2017). He believes a poem should above all be luminous and that it should continue to shine after it has been read, in the way the light of a perished star continues to travel through a galaxy.

"A poem must lift, take wing and fly 鈥� ideally, but not always 鈥� towards the sun.鈥�
