Clasp is award-winning Irish poet Doireann Ní Ghríofas first English-language collection of poems. In three sections entitled Clasp, Cleave and Clench, Ní Ghríofa engages in a strikingly physical way with the world of her subject matter. The result is by times what one poem calls A History in Hearts, among other things an intimate exploration of love, childbirth and motherhood, and simultaneously a place of separation and anxiety. In one poem set in the boys home in Letterfrack, a place of undeniable terror, we see how, in the name of religion, The earth holds small skulls like seeds. The final section of the book comprises a single poem, Seven Views of Cork City, which, swooping in and out of personal history, paints a convincing if sometimes unsettling portrait of the poets adopted city, and of urban lifes ubiquitous restraints on our dream of speed.
