Steven Denehan is an award-winning poet from Kildare. Photo supplied.
It's the success story that every author / poet wants to hear!
A book by a Kildare resident will be getting extra distribution this month.
'As If It Meant Something', is the latest book from award-winning poet Steve Denehan, and was originally published back in March.
The book contains a poignant collection of poetry that 'draws on a wide variety of experiences, which is bound to appeal to a broad cross-section of readers.'
Topics covered within the book range from the mundane to the profound: everyday experiences sit alongside the devastating decay caused by domestic violence and terminal illness, the soaring beauty of the Irish coastline and love, art, and thought.
Copies of 'As If It Meant Something' can be purchased here.
