Paperback. Dermot Bolger’s last new collection of poetry was The Venice Suite, a heart-breaking voyage through loss that touched the nation with its raw honesty. With this new book, Other People’s Lives, Bolger’s gaze ranges outwards to take in the often untold stories of those who have peopled Dublin’s streets over the last century. Every night during a year spent in lockdown, the poet Dermot Bolger set out on long walks through deserted streets, armed only with a pen and paper. The poems in this collection stem from the thoughts that ambushed him during these nocturnal strolls, being speculative meditations on his own life and the lives of other people – famous, forgotten or imaginary.

Paperback. A stunning, powerful new novel about a couple that pushes against traditional expectations, moving with their dogs to the Irish countryside where they embed themselves in nature and make attempts to disappear from society. It is the winter following the summer they met. A couple, Bell and Sigh, move into a remote house in the Irish countryside with their dogs. Both solitary with misanthropic tendencies, they leave the conventional lives stretched out before them to build another--one embedded in ritual, and away from the friends and family from whom they've drifted. They arrive at their new home on a clear January day and look up to appraise the view. A mountain gently and unspectacularly ascends from the Atlantic, "as if it had accumulated stature over centuries. As if, over centuries, it had steadily flattened itself upwards." They make a promise to climb the mountain, but--over the course of the next seven years--it remains un-climbed. We move through the seasons with Bell and Sigh as they come to understand more about the small world around them, and as their interest in the wider world recedes. Seven Steeples is a beautiful and profound meditation on the nature of love, and the resilience of nature. Through Bell and Sigh, and the life they create for themselves, Sara Baume explores what it means to escape the traditional paths laid out before us--and what it means to evolve in devotion to another person, and to the landscape.
