“Tugann Lorg Eile/Final Call dánta le chéile ó 16 chnuasach le Rody Gorman i mBéarla, i nGaeilge na hÉireann agus i nGaeilge na hAlban le haistriúcháin, go leor acu nua. Forbraíonn sé cleachtais nuálacha na hidirtheanga (foirm d’aistriúchán tiubh) agus lingua gadelica (foirm a nascann Gaeilge na hAlban agus Gaeilge na hAlban).

Sa chuid dheireanach de Ri Linn Glasadh an t-Sluaigh/Thar Céad Lá de Solitude sa Ghaidhealtachd tá píosaí nua as seicheamh a thaifeadann freagairt Gorman ar an ghlas i Sléibhte, an tEilean Sgitheanach, áit a bhfuil sé ina chónaí.”

“Lorg Eile/Final Call brings together poems from 16 collections by Rody Gorman in English, Irish and Scottish Gaelic with translations, many of which are new. It develops the innovative practices of intertonguing (a form of thick translation) and lingua gadelica (a form combining Irish and Scottish Gaelic).

The last section Ri Linn Glasadh an t-Sluaigh/Over a Hundred Days of Solitude in the Highlands contains new pieces from a sequence recording Gorman’s response to the lockdown in Sleat, Isle of Skye, where he lives.”
