Thaddeus Ó Buachalla is an Irish language author, poet, and musician from Cork City. He holds a PhD in Modern Irish from University College Cork and is the author of the critical study Clocháin sa Scoilt on the postmodern novel in Irish literature. His debut novel EL won an Oireachtas Literary Award and Irish Language Book of the Year at the An Post Irish Book Awards. His epic poem Immram an Phréacháin, which chronicles a surreal nocturnal journey through Cork City, has been widely performed as a multimedia spoken word show with his own musical compositions. Ó Buachalla's work combines fantastical elements with sharp satirical commentary on contemporary life, blending postmodern aesthetics with distinctly Irish urban sensibilities. Critics have compared his writing to Umberto Eco, while noting its uniquely Corkonian character that brings metropolitan vitality to modern Irish language literature. He is currently completing his second novel, Arrazalius, nó Cathú Antaine, a surreal work inspired by Hieronymus Bosch and set in 15th century Netherlands.
