Description

Bridget Keating with her urgent and devotional poems has created a first book that is both essential and moving in the ways it reveals that all our loves and our fates are inexorably intertwined. With a deftness for illuminating personal and public myths she evokes the beasts and angels that exist within our internal thoughts and dreams. In Red Ceiling Keating writes unblinkingly of human intimacies close at hand and also of lives outlined with clarity yet witnessed from a distance. Red Ceiling is full of poems that are both precise and startling, both devastating and full of grace.
