Along the Flaggy Shore; Poems from West Clare; Carlos Reyes (Salmon Poetry) ✓ In Stock

Paperback Condition: As New In his tenth volume of poetry, Irish American poet Carlos Reyes returns once again to Ireland. The poems in this collection capture the stark rural life that now has mostly passed, pushed aside and forgotten with the arrival of the "Celtic Tiger." Sitka spruce has supplanted the peat bog, and the slane rusts in the barn. The iconic haycocks that dotted the countryside are now replaced with huge black bags of sileage. This book paints a lyrical picture of a world gone. As Yeats' said, a way of life "all changed, utterly changed." Carlos Reyes first came to Ireland in the early 1970s, when he purchased a three-hundred-year-old cottage in County Clare. Acadia National Park and Joshua Tree National Park among others have hosted him as poet-in-residence. When not traveling, Reyes makes his home in Portland, Oregon.

An Asylum for My Affections: Sketches of Maeve Brennan edited by Molly Hennigan (Large Paperback) ✓ In Stock

In a letter to her editor at The New Yorker, the Irish writer Maeve Brennan described the emotional landscape provided by her mother: She gave me an ‘asylum for my affections’ and I learned that my affections so far exceeded her ability to understand me that she came near to drowning. In this new anthology of essays about Maeve Brennan, ten contemporary Irish writers consider the various meanings of the word ‘asylum’: an institution, a site of incarceration, a refuge and a shelter. They explore cityscapes and girlhood, mythology and folklore, loneliness and transience, the emotional impact of history and diaspora, as well as family connections to Brennan. These 'sketches' offer new and broader perspectives on Brennan’s life and the continuing impact of her work in the 21st century. Contributors include: Darran Anderson Niamh Campbell Mary Cregan Roddy Doyle Arnold Thomas Fanning Sinéad Gleeson Belinda McKeon Éilís Ní Dhuibhne Kate Phelan Jess Traynor ISBN 9781835940129
