Show Notes

This episode's guest is poet, Gaynor Kane, who hails from East Belfast. Although Gaynor never imagined herself as a poet, her most recent collection, "Venus in pink marble’ is a "captivating collection full of personal and social history, with authentic snapshots of people and places, skillfully rendered."

Gaynor started a degree with the Open University when she turned 40 and by the age of 46, she had completed her degree with a creative writing module.

Her journey takes us from East Belfast, to Dublin where she spent the night in a Garda Station, and to Galway and the Ards Peninsula.
