Please join the Keough-Naughton Institute for a poetry reading by Luke Morgan, recipient of the 2025 Lawrence O'Shaughnessy Award for Poetry. Luke Morgan will be reading from his new collection Blood Atlas (Arlen House, 2025). Copies of his books will be available for sale after the reading. About Blood Atlas Familial connection is at the heart of Luke Morgan’s eagerly-awaited third collection, Blood Atlas. More structured than his previous works, he navigates his lineage in the form of the villanelle, sonnet, ghazal and pantoum, seeking to make sense of his personal history. These stories are mapped with a cartographer’s eye, finding connections with ancestors such as Field Marshal Montgomery and the English physicist, James Prescott Joule. Full of striking images and timeless truths, each finely-wrought poem is ‘... an open wound’. The collection culminates in a sequence of ten sonnets which explore the lesser-known senses, whether detecting the passing of time in ‘Chronoception’ or the awareness of the body in space in ‘Proprioception’. Blood Atlas demonstrates the mature reach of a poet whose skill and memory work synergistically, creating a body of work that, like his family legacy, will endure. About Luke Morgan Luke Morgan is the recipient of the O'Shaughnessy Award 2025. Blood Atlas, his eagerly awaited third collection, from Arlen House, was completed with the assistance of a bursary from The Arts Council | An Chomhairle Ealaíon.

In addition to his work as a poet, Luke is also part of an award-winning filmmaker duo Morgan Brothers with the composer Jake Morgan. He lives and works in Galway, Ireland.  Originally published at irishstudies.nd.edu.

Classics in the BrowningDirected by Quentin TarantinoWith Kurt Russell, Zoë Bell, Rosario DawsonRated R, 114 minutes, DCPWhen talking about grindhouse cinema, it refers to both a style of low-budget, exploitation films and the often-blighted urban theatres that showed those films. When Quentin Tarantino (Death Proof) and Robert Rodriguez (Planet Terror) pulled together their double-feature Grindhouse in 2007, it extracted the grindhouse style and served it in theatres that would have previously clutched their pearls at such an idea. We cut the legs off of the Grindhouse double-feature and will be showing Death Proof, a film about a bad guy with a bad car. Following the screening will be a double feature of sorts as a presentation of 1970s grindhouse trailers will be live scored. GET TICKETS
