Matt Kirkham’s The Lost Museums (Lagan, 2006) won the Strong Award for best first collection in Ireland. He followed this up in 2011 with the Templar pamphlet Aged Fourteen My Grandfather Runs Away to Sea, and the collection The Dumbo Octopus (Templar, 2016). His latest collection, Thirty-Seven Theorems of Incompleteness, tells the story of the marriage of Kurt and Adele Gödel.
