Now I Understand
Gerry Murphy & Lorraine Buchanan are from Glasgow, Scotland. In Now I Understand they share openly and honestly their struggles with life, recovery and change. Their own lived experience and pain became their greatest teacher.
The Accidental Entrepreneur
The last thing Gerry Murphy planned to do was start his own business. However, a social plan to regenerate his hometown of Churchtown in North Cork led to a brief encounter at a fuel forecourt which eventually led to the establishment of a company that was turning over €100 million within three years. In Part I of The Accidental Entrepreneur Gerry Murphy tells the fascinating story of how he became a social entrepreneur and the difficulties he encountered (and overcame) along the way, and how this led to the development of GreatGas Petroleum. It’s a gripping behind-the-scenes look at how a business is born. Part II provides a step-by-step guide of how to launch and build your own successful business even if you have neither capital nor commercial experience. It includes dozens of case histories, international examples, invaluable checklists and lots and lots of inspirational advice. Concise, practical and honest, The Accidental Entrepreneur is an essential read, whether you are an established entrepreneur, starting out with your first business or just dreaming of creating your own company. Everyone can become an entrepreneur. Read this and be inspired.
Kissing Maura O'Keeffe
Kissing Maura O'Keefe is a chapbook selection of old and new love poems by Cork-poet Gerry Murphy. Murphy has published nine collections of poetry, noted for their political and erotic charge as well as their irreverent humour. Gerry Murphy was born in Cork in 1952. His poetry collections includethe The Humours of Nothingness (2020) Muse (2010) My Flirtation with International Socialism (2010) and End of Part One: New and Selected Poems (2006), all from Dedalus. Murphy's poems have appeared in many journals and anthologies, and Pocket Apocalypse, his translations of the Polish poet Katarzyna Borun-Jagodzinska, appeared in 2005 from Southword Editions.
Muse
Gerry Murphy's distinctive, provocative, left-of-center poems have made him one of the most popular Irish poets of his generation. In this new collection, Murphy continues to explore his perennial subjects of political and religious influence as well as themes of love and loss, and lasting desire.
The Humours of Nothingness
At once hilarious and melancholy, earnest and throwaway, the poems in Cork-based Gerry Murphy's latest collection take nothing for granted - least of all the power of humour in the entirely serious business of staying sane.
The Great Cover-Up
Why were both sides of the Civil War divide so evasive when it came to the death of Michael Collins? Why were they still trying to effect cover-ups as late as the 1960s? Determined to find the truth despite the trails of deception left by many of the key players, Gerard Murphy, a scientist, looked in detail at the evidence. Previous researchers have tended to concentrate on the reminiscences of survivors. Murphy instead focuses on information that appeared in the immediate wake of the ambush, before attempts could be made to conceal the truth. He also examines newly released material, and has carried out a forensic analysis of the ambush site based on photographic evidence of the aftermath recently discovered in a Dublin attic. These investigations have unearthed significant new evidence, overlooked for almost a century, that seriously questions the version of events currently accepted by historians.
And You May Find Yourself
IF YOU FOUND OUT YOU WERE GOING TO DIE TOMORROW, what would that information stir in you? Calmness? Regrets? Sadness? Need? Wishes? What promises would you make to yourself, if you could suspend the end? And what if the time from now until tomorrow is compromised by your condition? There would be no arranged farewells, no last meal of your choice, none of the luxuries that Hollywood or bucket lists suggest are available to us. For 5 days in an ICU in NYC this became my reality. Isolated, not allowed food or water, not coherent or comprehending enough to communicate with my loved ones, and too scared to go to sleep in case I didn't wake. I use my love for music as the backdrop for my story. T...
