Máire Áine Ní Dhireáin

Máire Áine Ní Dhireáin does not hesitate to engage with raw emotion, whether evoked by love, death or the crags of her beloved Aran, transmuting it into elegant free verse. She is always sharply conscious of the historical dimensions of her surroundings, whether in Inishmore or London. Many of her present-day fellow-Irish forget or ignore this dimension, but she has no compunction in expressing the indignation she feels at the historical wrong done to our people. A Woman of Aran entitles Máire Áine Ní Dhireáin to add her name to Inishmore's distinguished literary pantheon.
