<p/><br></br><p><b> About the Book </b></p></br></br>"Attracta Fahy is seer and chronicler, not of history as we've been taught it, but of a past speckled with folk memory; she is a seer into hearts, into the sensuous rush that sometimes defines what being human means." -Mary O'Donnell, Maynooth<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br><p>Fahy's work is the true poetry of the soul. From the depths of her intuitive self her poems speak to us of the archetypes of the collective unconscious.</p><p>Whether we read them in solitude or hear them spoken they give us a sense of our connectedness to the universe, to nature, and to each other</p> <p> - Máirín Ní Nualláin Psychiatrist and Analytical Psychologist.</p> <p>Appearing in journals for some time, Attracta Fahy's poems now find their home in <em>Dinner in the Fields</em>. Like the ancients, she bears an attraction for the depths and modes of spirit, our humanity among the deceased, in lyrics of moving recollection. Here we find the strict codes of rural life, turf fires, gravestone etchings, the character of fields, thmaw of slurry pits, the waves of migratory birds whose rhythms map our own instincts of homing and displacement. </p> <p>- David Rigsbee</p><p/><br></br><p><b> Review Quotes </b></p></br></br><br><p>"Attracta Fahy's poetry is loaded with explosive material and hits the reader like a tornado. Her poems are rich with perfectly chosen images which couldn't but move the reader. Indeed, if these emotionally raw poems don't make you sit up and listen you should perhaps go to doctor to check if you're still alive."</p> <p> - Kevin Higgins</p><br>
