Bøger af Leanne O'Sullivan

Fourth collection by popular young Irish poet written in response to her husband's total loss of memory following a brain infection. More present to him him were birds and animals he believed he could see during his recovery. Winner of the inaugural Farmgate Cafe National Poetry Award 2019.

The Mining Road, Leanne O'Sullivan's third poetry collection, finds inspiration in the disused copper mines that haunt the rugged terrain around Allihies, near her home at Beara, in West Cork. O'Sullivan's poems move and provoke as they resonate with experiences at the heart of contemporary Ireland.

An Cailleach Bhearra, or the Hag of Beara, is a wise woman figure embedded in the physical and mental landscape of western Ireland and Scotland. Recognising the Cailleach as a figure of extraordinary power and influence, this title features poems that explore the human origins from which the legend grew.

Waiting for My Clothes, Leanne O'Sullivan's first collection, traces a deeply personal journey, from the traumas of eating disorder and low self-esteem to the saving powers of love and positive awareness.
