The Works returns tonight on RTÉ One at 8.30pm and it’s time to reveal the ten poems that have been shortlisted for RTÉ A Poem For Ireland.
Last autumn the public nominated their favourite Irish poems from the last hundred years. From that list a jury of poetry lovers and experts have put together a list of ten poems which reflect the wide range of nominated poems and which tell a story of Ireland from the past century. The public have nominated, the jury have deliberated and now it’s time to reveal the final shortlist so the public can decide which is their Poem for Ireland.
