'You get a lot more than biography in this account of the people’s poet Edward Evan, a man who was said to be the last druid standing ... easily one of my books of the year' @JonGower1 review of my book: nation.cymru/culture/book-r…

'One of the aspects of the book that makes it stand out for me, and makes it easily one of my books of the year – is the deft and often unexpected way in which it slides deftly from the past into the present ...' @jongower1 nation.cymru/culture/book-r…

Honoured to attend the launch of Rev. Dr Harold Good’s memoir, co-authored by former Queen’s Senator @MartinOBrienCom, in the Great Hall tonight—an event led by one of our most distinguished alumna, former President of Ireland, Professor Mary McAleese. Rev. Good’s unwavering dedication to peace and reconciliation has profoundly shaped our society. His legacy of hope, courage, and commitment to a better future is inspiring, and we are privileged to have him as a cherished member of the @QUBelfast community.
