Inhaltsangabe

A poetic tour de force. The reality of life stripped back to its bare fundamentals. Despite charting a life lived through austerity and the predations of political elites, Colm Keegan's optimism - for his children, his family, and his community - never flags. Even on the most difficult terrain he is a sure-footed and trustworthy guide. While still honoring his roots in the Dublin vernacular, Keegan increases his range, more sophisticated and diverse in style, more mature in tone. In the rubble and the detritus, in the waste and the ruin, Keegan finds nuggets of subtle and pervasive truth. Keegan is a writer and poet from Dublin. Since 2005, he has been shortlisted four times for the Hennessy New Irish Writing Award, for both poetry and fiction.
