From The Irish Times, Tuesday, June 6, 2017
Poet Michael O’Loughlin writes
“The best pieces here hint at how the poet can get in touch with what Richard Murphy calls “the Queen of Inner Operations”. It would be hard to define it better than Alice Lyons when she talks of “fumbling, feeling, groping, playing – not so much to recover radical innocence as to create conditions for radical stumbling”.
The anthology is available from all good independent bookshops and Dedalus Press.
