We hope you will join us to celebrate the publication of two new poetry collections at our book launch at Books Upstairs.
Fallen by Audrey Molloy
‘Wives are afraid of me now.’ From the opening line of Fallen there is a sense of danger and intimacy. In her latest and most risqué collection Audrey Molloy asks: What makes a good person? What does it mean to be a fallen woman? And can she ever redeem herself?
Hymn to All the Restless Girls by Annemarie Ní Churreáin
Annemarie Ní Churreáin continues to trace the personal in public tragedies and to transmute them into fiercely dramatic poetry. Celebrating the rebel spirit of the restless girl, sometimes known as a troublemaker but valued as a truth-teller, she offers prayers of defiance, sacraments of identification, howls of protest and lyric flights.
