Carnival

Seamus Cashman comes from the village of Conna in County Cork. Educated att the local primary school, where his father was 'The Master', and at St. Colman's College, Fermoy, he also studied for the priesthood at Maynooth College but left after three years.

Having obtained a higher diploma in edication at University College, Cork, he spent two 'glorious' years in the mountains of southern Tanzania learning and teaching. He subsequently taught at St. Colman's, Fermoy before joining the newly established academic publishing house, Irish University Press in Dublin. When it closed seven years later, there was a period of unemployment before he set ip his own publishing house, Wolfhound Press. He lives in Portmarnock, County Dublin where he is married with three children.

The poems in this collection are new and old, and in essence are "attempts to delve into those personal and race memories that from time to time disturb our complacency, or that reflect some of the pleasure there is in remembering one's moments of wisdom amidst the decades of foolishness."
