Reviews

"A book of enormous heart, fragility and courage, very aware of the cycles of life and decay, the wax and wane of seasons, and shot through with a sense of the fragility of life. These finely crafted poems grabbed our attention this year and make a wonderful companion to Kerry Hardie's previous seven collections, including her Selected Poems, published in 2011."--Peter Sirr and Enda Wyley, Books for Breakfast podcast (Top 10 Poetry Books of 2020), on Where Now Begins

'Kerry Hardie's Where Now Begins is full of a dark, exact lyricism... These, certainly, are poems which speak skilfully to (and from) our times.' - Seán Hewitt, The Irish Times
