In her second book of poems Sinead Morrissey's worlds grow more diverse, encompassing the Orient, the Antipodes, America and an Ireland which recent history has changed and yet not deeply, a country observed through eyes that travel and time have made dispassionate and disabused.

Through the Square Window
ISBN: 9781847770578 / Angielski / Miękka / 2010 / 59 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 8-10 dni roboczych. Fertility, pregnancy, and the landscape of early childhood are themes explored in this collection of poems, which are by turns tender, exuberant, and unsettling. Pitched against envious dead, these diverse narratives of birth and its consequences are rooted in literary and historical contexts from Aristotle s theory of spontaneous generation to Lewis Carroll s Alice that amplify the depth of the collection. These selections are an examination of motherhood and infancy, which is the rich and contested territory in which what it means to be human in a precarious world is disclosed."

This book of poems is organized around the theme of the journey: from communism to spiritual affirmation; from life in Ireland to life abroad, and return; and from the security of given structures - the family in particular to independence and security in the self. Poems of childhood and communist upbringing open the collection. There are poems about death; about love, its loss and the disorientation that ensues; and a number which deal with angels and the implications of religious faith."

Parallax: And Selected Poems
ISBN: 9780374536138 / Angielski / Miękka / 2016 / 224 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. Sinead Morrissey is one of the most fascinating talents in international poetry. Recently appointed Belfast's first poet laureate, she creates poems known for their combination of keen intelligence and whispered intimacy. In Parallax, which won the 2013 T. S. Eliot Prize, Morrissey writes of what is captured, and what is lost, when houses and cityscapes, servants and saboteurs ("the different people who lived in sepia"), are arrested in time by photography (or poetry), subjected to the authority of a particular perspective. Assured and disquieting, Morrisey's poems explore the... Sinead Morrissey is one of the most fascinating talents in international poetry.

Parallax
ISBN: 9781847772046 / Angielski / Miękka / 2013 / 80 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 8-10 dni roboczych. Capturing David Niven on a magical marble escalator to heaven in 1946, recording L. S. Lowry s studio after his death, and peering into the illicit worlds of the Victorian Mutoscope, these poems document what is caught, and what is lost, when houses and cityscapes, servants and saboteurs are arrested in time by photography. Assured and unsettling, Sinead Morrissey s poems explore the paradoxes in what is seen, read, and misread in the surfaces of the presented world."

O równowadze
ISBN: 9788366003453 / Polski / Miękka ze skrzydełka / 2019 / 156 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 1-3 dni roboczych. Podczas lektury wierszy Sinéad Morrissey nie ma wątpliwości, że równowaga świata nie jest bynajmniej jego stanem oczywistym. Architektura tej poezji jest ekstrawagancka i krucha, balansuje na granicy niemożliwego, a jednak okazuje się możliwa, choćby na piękną chwilę. Jak triumfalny lot Jętki, jak sztuka cyrkowa, jak susy niedźwiedzia polarnego, jak machiny Al Dżazariego. Wiersze Morrissey mówią o nieoczywistej równowadze bycia kobietą, mówią lirycznie i dyskursywnie zarazem. To książka konsekwentna i spójna w niemal surrealnym bogactwie swych obrazów.
