Poetry Ireland also welcomes William Keohane,who has been appointed guest editor of Trumpet, an annual literary pamphlet carrying reviews, opinions and essays on poetry and the writing life by newer voices.
Nidhi Zak/Aria Eipe said of the announcement:
"It's with a certain wide-eyed joy that I approached this invitation to edit an issue of Poetry Ireland Review, alongside a formidable team who are so incomparably supportive and nurturing of poets across the island. Poetry Ireland's pillars and people have been a second home to me; its legendary editors made me feel like I belonged to that lyrical world of words long before I ever quite believed it myself. I look forward to felicitating the possibility of poetry, to working with poets who are consistently expanding the palette of language and the arc of perception – and exploring the singular kinds of astonishment that contemporary poetry might introduce or incorporate which moves it, and us, to places anew."
