Poem In The Manner of The Late Kevin Higgins: What is most striking is his immense self-regard



My 'Poem In The Manner of The Late Kevin Higgins' is just published in the special Irish issue of the Portland, Oregon based online literary magazine Penduline, which is edited by Dave Lordan with the following epigram from a 'Member of the Socialist Party whose name no one remembers':

“What is most striking is his [Kevin Higgins's] immense self-regard.”

The issue also includes ‘Standing on the Couch: the Over the Edge Readings Series Turns Ten' an essay by Susan Millar DuMars plus fine new writing by a range of rising Irish writers.
