On Ballycastle Beach

By Medbh McGuckian

With this third collection, Medbh McGuckian deepens her exploration of the tension between imaginative and quotidian experience in suburban Belfast. In poems that explore a woman's intense inner life--within the body, within the home, within erotic and maternal relationships--she gracefully unhinges semantic structures and rational thought to create an emotionally charged and very personal language.
