Niall is a product of one of the waves of Irish migration into London. He has carried his history through the streets and estates of London and now infuses it passionately in his poetry.
With a keen eye for comic irony, a radar for tender violence, and an incredibly well-informed mind he juggles a subtle blend of angst and humour with unmatched aplomb. Having honed his talent through the kinks of London's unsettled temperament, Niall has developed an original voice that drives the compelling narrative of his debut collection you're not singing anymore.
Featured Book:
Our featured book this month is Niall O'Sullivan's you're not singing anymore from waterways. A debut layered with ample wit and imagination. Get it in-store at Borders, or order it on amazon.
