Of Dead Silences
None
Abattoir Whispers
In this world of Mc Aloran's there is no definitive suffering. One accumulates scars like years; not always aware of each day, each slice into flesh. It is both an accumulative living and dying; a horror and a wry smile at the ongoing absurdity and meaninglessness of existence. from the introduction by Gillian Prew
THE ZERO EYE
""with poetry and poets, with art, it seems a veritable probability that in the ""produce"" of this art there are personal developments going on which affect this art and making it a ""developmental"" ""work in progress"" even if the art executed, in this instance fullblooded poetry, is expressed in a continuous stream of perfectly formed and inherently consistent isles of artistry, expression, expulsion even exorcism orexoticism. this is in my opinion highly the case with michael mcaloran's poetry and the steady produce of high quality immanently consistent collections of poems resulting also subsequently in this striking chromatography of books."" from the introduction by Aad de Gids
CODE 4 TEXTS
The corrosive marriage of texts by Irish poet Michael McAloran and Netherlands poet Aad de Gids.
The Non Herein
None
breath(en) flux
'While systematically assaulting language and dredging and sifting its debris Mc Aloran not only points to the essential futility and meaningless of existence, but also revitalises and reinvigorates. In a landscape of bland poseurs and safe, vanilla poetry, Mc Aloran cuts like a knife and writes in blood.' - A.D. Hitchin
Twilight Furniture
Posthuman pornography. Like Beckett's How It Is crossed with Pierre Guyotat's Eden, Eden, Eden via an Ikea catalogue. Warning Reading this book in one sitting might prove to be emotionally disturbing.
Unto Naught
None
EchoNone
EchoNone by Michael Mc Aloran further explores how the original imprint is dislocation & homeless. there is actually no nothing, there is no void or vacancy and absence is something that might have mattered, but somewhere else. there is no nothing to hypostasize & it does not noth, & everything is here all the time, often smelling funny, though you might not want it to be. apart from the failure of the eye and sensibility, the book records the emptiness of speech. because meaning is broken by nature, it does not attempt to simulate a world created like a stage set to record the author's lunatic contribution to the pitiful attempts people feel obliged to make to sustain the stifling illusion of normality that the modern system, the system of modernity, demands." -- David McLean

And Agamemnon Dead An Anthology of Early Twenty First Century Irish Poetry Edited by Peter O'Neill & Walter Ruhlmann Michael McAloran -- Amos Greig -- Dylan Brennan -- Christine Murray -- Arthur Broomfield -- Peter O' Neill -- Rosita Sweetman -- Michael J. Whelan -- Anamaria Crowe Serrano -- Peadar O' Donoghue -- Strider Marcus Jones -- Colm Kearns -- John Saunders -- Kevin Higgins -- Paul Casey -- Sarah Brown Weitzman -- Eithne Lannon -- Maighread Medbh -- Jack Grady -- Bob Shakeshaft .".".there does indeed exist a whole world of writing out there which seems to live in a parallel universe alongside the more familiar voices which appear in the mainstream media, here in Ireland. There is nothing remarkable being said here, is it not always the case in every period, no matter what society? There will always be the majority, who somehow would appear to expound the specific values and criteria which that particular society holds up."" Peter O'Neill extract from the Preface"
