Ian Bailey launches poetry collection at Hot Press Chatroom
Ian Bailey launched his poetry collection, The West Cork Way, at the Hot Press Chatroom this afternoon.
During an in-depth interview with Hot Press' Olaf Tyaransen, the former journalist admitted that poetry is his main creative outlet when it comes to dealing with the turmoil of his 20 year battle to clear his name over the murder of Sophie Toscan du Plantier.
He shared, for the first time, a poem called 'A Thousand Arrows', which appeared to demonstrate his resilience in the face of overwhelming attacks on his character.
