Description

Shortlisted for the Pigott Poetry Prize 2021A Sunday Independent Book of the Year 2020An Irish Times Best Poetry Book of the Year 2020Sinéad Morrissey has published six celebrated collections of poetry.

This Selected Poems reveals how she has developed formally and thematically from the precocious and carefully considered first book, There Was Fire in Vancouver (1996), to the most recent and highly praised, On Balance (2017). There is throughout Morrissey's work a civic dimension: her imagination is dynamically peopled, as are her various landscapes and sense of history, and she is drawn to the conflicts and contradictions at the heart of all human intention and inquiry, as well as to celebrating individual women and men and the things they create or unleash.

There is always a paradox which she enters and explores, making it luminous but never resolving it.

For Morrissey, each poem becomes a word-space in which readers are set free on their own journey of discovery.
