Feeney, Elaine

  • All the good things you deserve

    £12.99

    Elaine Feeney brings her poetry to Harvill Secker and Vintage with this powerful, personal, fierce collection about women’s lives, bodies, battles, and triumphs. From a searing meditation on the experience and aftershocks of a sexual assault – written as a series of unflinching cantos – to poems of love, place and new beginnings, Feeney’s voice is strong and clear, challenging and confessional, rooted in her west coast of Ireland heritage while speaking to and with women everywhere.

  • How to build a boat

    £9.99

    Jamie O’Neill loves the colour red. He also loves tall trees, patterns, rain that comes with wind, the curvature of many objects, books with dust jackets, cats, rivers and Edgar Allan Poe. At age 13 there are two things he especially wants in life: to build a Perpetual Motion Machine, and to connect with his mother Noelle, who died when he was born. In his mind these things are intimately linked. And at his new school, where all else is disorientating and overwhelming, he finds two people who might just be able to help him. ‘How to Build a Boat’ is the story of how one boy and his mission transforms the lives of his teachers, Tess and Tadhg, and brings together a community.
