Gearóid Mac Lochlainn is the author of "Sruth Teangacha : Stream of
Tongues," a bi-lingual book of poems, in Irish and English, published
by Cló Iar-Chonnachta at Indreabhán in Conamara, County Galway,
Ireland.

Mac Lochlainn is one of the more interesting poets writing in the
Irish language today, innovative and post-modern!

Gearóid Mac Lochlainn's book has the troubles and life in West Belfast
as a dominant theme, although not to the exclusion of everything else.
 (Themes like friendship and music are also present.)  The book
includes a CD of some of the poems, read by the poet himself.

Nuala Ní Dhomhnaill, writing about STREAM OF TONGUES, insisted that
Mac Lochlainn "brought with him a whole new, gritty, Belfast urban
experience that has hardly been present in Irish in a long time."
