CIARAN CARSON is Professor of Poetry and Director of the Seamus Heaney Centre for Poetry at Queen's University Belfast. His translation of the Old Irish epic Tain Bo Cuailnge (The Tain) was published by Penguin Classics in 2007. He has published numerous collections of poetry, including The New Estate (Blackstaff Press, 1976) which won the Eric Gregory Award; and he has written two prose books, including The Pocket Guide to Irish Traditional Music (The Appletree Press, 1996). He is a member of Aosdana and lives in Belfast.
More than twenty years after the end of their love affair, Gabriel receives thirteen postcards from old flame Nina, each one provoking memories about their life together in 1980s Belfast and reveries on subjects such as the Troubles, his father, Esperanto and fountain pens.
