Simultaneously acerbic and controlled, this collection of poetry offers an unexpected mixture of lyrical cadences combined with an array of brutally honest stories. Basing many of its tales in Ireland, this anthology demonstrates how politics can be intrinsic to narrative, while the more personal poems featured--highlighting family or childhood memories--are cast in a sensitive yet characteristically unsentimental light. Founded upon the notion that all poems contain internal conflicts, this poetic exploration offers numerous opportunities for contemplation and discussion.
