Stench is an ebullient celebration of the human, the domestic and the natural world, and an invitation to breathe in the myriad and diverse flavours of the poet’s richly lived life, close to the border between Northern Ireland and the Republic of Ireland. Her poems combine an astute attention to structure and form, with an often hilarious and daring sense of inventiveness, are chockful of vivid images and turns of phrase, often magical in their originality and conception.
