Origin’s 1st Irish Poetry — Padraig O Tuama

The WB Yeats Society presents Padraig O Tuama, in a reading of his new and powerful collection of poetry, which arises from his work in reconciliation in Northern Ireland.  Called “an extraordinary person whose influence extends quietly and gracefully across the world” by NPR’s Krista Tippett, Tuama encourages people who lived through the Troubles to tell their stories of personal pain and political which he encapsulates poetically to breathtaking effect.
