Recent poetry, fiction, histories re: Cork, Ireland? The question title says it all, except maybe to clarify: not looking for authors from Cork so much as stories about or set in Cork. Even better if it's something that is likely to be on the shelves at a book store in the US. Thanks.

Not a story but a play, and not easily found in a bookstore: An Irish Play by Dan O'Brien, set in Cork.

Best answer: The Dork of Cork by Chet Raymo.

Mind That 'tis My Brother by Gaye Shortland. Very much set in Cork, complete with the vernacular.
