Book description
Although The Map of the World abounds in the tales half-told or hinted at for which Eiléan Ní Chuilleanáin's poetry is widely admired this book reaches further into the ways one might confront misfortune and disaster and the whole weight of history. Her images present ideas about how to engage with the past and about other genres' representations of it.Already celebrated poems such as 'St Brigid's Well' and 'Muriel Gifford After Her Fever' mix with lines prompted by Milton and Marvell and the artists Nano Reid and Helen Moloney to 'hold in view / history's patched lining, the sewing'. Eiléan Ní Chuilleanáin's corruscating poems are like no one else's: 'a stream is venturing a brisk melody'. So satisfying is the experience of this poet's art a new collection of poems by her is an occasion for rejoicing.

The family subscription option is a money-saver – everyone gets to enjoy their favorite books. This app's intuitive controls and user-friendly layout have made audiobook listening a true pleasure. With features like auto-rewind, I never lose my place when I pause listening. It was fine. The narrator did an adequate job but nothing about the performance particularly stood out to me. Got me through my commute though. I don't have strong feelings about this one either way. The narration was competent but forgettable. The story itself was more engaging than the performance.
