Synopsis

These poems are the work of a canny and dextrous stylist. Nearly every poem records an important human fact that has hitherto gone unspoken; nearly every poem both marks a past silence and opens a new possibility. This is a truly profound book, a remarkable and valuable achievement"" - Victor Luftig, Brandeis University. Mary Dorcey's work is taught in Irish Studies and Women's Studies Courses at universities in Ireland, Britain, Canada, and the US. Her poetry has been performed on stage, radio, and television.
