All the Good Things you Deserve
€15.95
Elaine Feeney brings her poetry to Harvill Secker and Vintage with this powerful, personal, fierce collection about women’s lives, bodies, battles, and triumphs. From a searing meditation on the experience and aftershocks of a sexual assault – written as a series of unflinching cantos – to poems of love, place and new beginnings, Feeney’s voice is strong and clear, challenging and confessional, rooted in her west coast of Ireland heritage while speaking to and with women everywhere.

How do we love, trust and create in the aftermath of trauma? How do we name and speak that love?
In this powerful new collection from acclaimed poet and novelist Elaine Feeney, images and memory circle and recur, and the journey from pain towards a place of greater safety is far from linear.
All the Good Things You Deserve juxtaposes violence, hurt and the tyranny of shame with love, beauty and the transformative possibilities of art.
