Cork-born David Murphy has lived in north county Dublin (and in Waterford) for more than forty years. His most recent book is a debut poetry collection, Drowning in the Desert, published in May 2020 by Limerick’s Revival Press. Walking on Ripples, his first book to feature non-fiction, came out in 2014 from Dublin’s Liffey Press. His previous titles include the contemporary fantasy novella Bird of Prey (2011), Arkon Chronicles (also a novella, 2003) and the well received novel Longevity City (2005) each of which was published in the USA.
