This deeply moving debut collection is where poetry and history meet. Connie Roberts recounts her childhood in one of Ireland's most notorious industrial schools, coming to terms with this experience and examining the roles played by those around her. A poetic bildungsroman, we follow her life from orphanage to adulthood and work where she looks back without sentimentality and profound brutality.
Connie Roberts, a County Offaly native, emigrated from Ireland to the United States in 1983. Her poetry has been published in journals in the U.S. and Europe. She teaches creative writing at Hofstra University, New York and is part of Hofstra’s Irish Studies program.
