| Sommario/riassunto: | The Book of Invasions ? Lebor Gabála Érenn ? is a compilation of manuscripts describing the very specific discovery of Ireland (?on the fifteenth, on a Saturday') following the Creation and the Flood. The Pop-Up Book of Invasions is Fiona Farrell's poetic response to a six-month stay in Ireland as inaugural recipient of the Rathcoola Residency in County Cork. Part travelogue, part family record, part song and myth and history rewritten, this collection revels and laments in equal measure in a landscape deeply inscribed with narrative. The poems in The Pop-up Book draw heavily and vividly |
