Résumé : | Celia de Fréine is a multi-award winning poet, playwright, screenwriter and librettist, who also writes essays and fiction in both English and Irish. She has published eight collections of poetry, including three dual-language editions with Arlen House. Four of her plays have been awarded Duais an Oireachtais for best full-length play, and her biography (in Irish) of Louise Gavan Duffy – Ceannródaí – is due out later this year. This conversation with writer Lia Mills explores the innovative nature of de Fréine's work, in language, form and subject matter. It discusses key poetry volumes, such as her response to the Hepatitis C scandal – Fiacha Fola | Blood Debts – and A Lesson in Can't, which draws on the lives of Irish Travellers. It also considers her commitment to writing for theatre in both Irish and English, and her recent prose. The dialogue sheds light on the complex relationship between Irish and English in de Fréine's work, and her evolving creative practice. |
