New Month, New Poetry: Understudies by Anne-Marie Fyfe
As washout August gives way to a surprisingly sunny September, this week sees the publication of Understudies: New and Selected Poems by one of Ireland's finest and most popular poets, Anne-Marie Fyfe.
Understudies brings together new poems of optimism and isolation, of assumed and confused identities, with some of the poems from The Ghost Twin, Tickets from a Blank Window and Late Crossing that first brought readers into this world of lives at once chaotic and oddly consolatory.
