The Hungry Voice brings together in an important and moving collection, poems written between 1845 and 1850 by the men and women who lived through those terrible years. Many of the poems are republished here for the first time, taken directly from the newspapers of the period, where they had shared the pages with reports of the devastation that was sweeping Ireland. The collection includes a full set of explanatory notes and an introductory essay that helps place the reader in the world of Famine Ireland.

Lecturer in English Christopher Morash

This work examines literary texts by writers such as William Carleton, Anthony Trollope and James Clarence Mangan and shows how they interact with histories, sermons and economic treatises to construct a narrative of the Irish famine, when more than one million Irish people died.
