Representing Dublin was Irish-language poet Eoin P. Ó Murchú, performing his poem Rogha an Dá Dhíogha/Choice. Eoin placed sixth out of 21 competing entries from Cities of Literature around the world.
This year's final, held on 1 November, was hosted by Iowa City UNESCO City of Literature and last year's winner, Henry Morray, with international audiences tuning in via livestream. Dublin City of Literature marked the occasion with a watch party at The Black Market Bar.
Eoin is a writer, poet, and translator who has performed at poetry events throughout Ireland. His work has appeared in Poetry Ireland Review and An Dearcán, and his poetry performances can also be found on YouTube.
Congratulations to Edinburgh UNESCO City of Literature, whose representative, Heather Rose won this year's competition.
