WELCOME
WELCOME to the home of the Dedalus Press, one of Ireland’s most forward-looking and energetic literary imprints, since 1985 publishing new poetry from Ireland and the world.
Despite the Covid-19 emergency, we’re still hard at work, and hoping to complete our planned programme for 2020, with perhaps inevitable delays and postponements. Our local Post Office is still happy to see us with book packages and parcels, and we’ve currently got a 30% off sale on all titles, paperback and hardback (enter coupon code ‘SALE2020‘ on checkout page).
We’re also doing what we can to keep in touch with poets and readers through our Facebook page, encouraging exchanges of poems and opinion, at this time of great worry and social distancing putting our faith in the most intimate of art forms. Do come and join us. As we say around here, now more than ever Poetry Matters: Spread the Word.
