Our book of the week is Jiving with Wasps by Rita Ann Higgins; a new retrospective published by Bloodaxe, and our Special Commendation for Spring 2026.
Drawing on a dozen books of poetry published over four decades, as well as new work appearing here for the first time, these are provocative and heart-warming poems of high jinks and telling social comment by a gutsy, anarchic chronicler of Irish lives and foibles.
