Where to get Staircase Poems

A few folk have asked how to get the book if they're not getting it delivered through the mail slot. I was amazed to find that Amazon.co.uk will actually sell you a copy if you are willing to wait four to six weeks for delivery! But you can get it sooner if you send a request by email to Siobhán O'Malley who is the communications officer for The Dock. Her email is somalley@leitrimcoco.ie.

The book is also for sale in Dublin at the bookshop at the Hugh Lane Municipal Gallery in Parnell Square, The Winding Stair Bookshop on the north side of the Liffey, and Books Upstairs on Dame Street. If you come through Carrick-on-Shannon, you can get it in the Leitrim Design House, which is in The Dock or at the bookshops in Carrick of which there are now three. It is in the bookshop at the Model + Niland Gallery in Sligo too. If you post a comment here, I will be able to get in touch and see about getting a book to you. I try to check the blog comments regularly.
