Ireland and its extended history of legends and poetry has made a massive global contribution to both modern and historic literature. This site, based in Ireland, provides information about Irish literature and Irish authors.

The site is linked to the anthology 'Ireland's Other Poetry: Anonymous to Zozimus', edited by John Wyse Jackson and Hector McDonnell, and published in early November 2007 by Lilliput Press. Both the book and the site explore, sample and discuss the many rich veins of Irish verse in English that are overlooked, ignored or dismissed by many conventional poetry-fanciers and academics. The verses usually rhyme, and embrace ballads, light and comic verse, advertising jingles, theatrical recitations, and the like. John Wyse Jackson, who adds to the site about once a week, welcomes submissions and suggestions.

In today's rough and tumble hurly burley media landscape, it can be impossible to sort the sweet sustaining wheat from harsh bitter mounds of chaff. Major corporations led by obese diseased ancients from their grim gothic mansions, dictate the opinions of lapdog reviewers. Conde Naste, Murdock Media, Sony BMG, MSNBC - corporate behemoths, cavernous maws and endless pockets. In a time of war, a time of greed, a time of emaciated blond anchorpeople with rictus boxtoxed grins and Oral Roberts MBA's, who can be trusted? That's where we come in. Jackdaw Fool, a product of Jackdaw Media Group (JDMG), available online and in all good newsagents, is a supplier of 100 % independent newstruth. Our reviews and articles are hand crafted from the finest honesty by critics of taste and decency. By actively avoiding the film, album, or book under review, we ensure an unparalleled level of independent, unbiased truthiness. By accepting only the most obscenely generous gratuities, our readers can be assured that when we do sell out, we are not bought cheaply. Jackdaw Fool, your guide dog in the rush hour traffic of entertainment.
