'Throw in the Vowels' is a new retrospective from Rita Ann Higgins including a free audio CD of poems read by the author.
An Awful Racket was Rita Ann Higgins's first Bloodaxe collection to follow Sunny Side Plucked, her first retrospective: provocative and heartwarming poems of high jinx, jittery grief and telling social comment by a gutsy, anarchic chronicler of the Irish dispossessed. Now out of print, the poems are included in her later retrospective, Throw in the Vowels (2005).
Summary: "This handbook introduces prosocial education as an umbrella term denoting the various ways in which all players in education impact student development"--
Tongulish is the language of sweet talk and honeyed words, babble and blather, quibble and quizzical. And tongulish is spoken throughout Rita Ann Higgins's lively new collection. These are provocative and heart-warming poems of high jinx and telling social comment by a gutsy, anarchic chronicler of Irish lives and foibles, mischievous and playful in their portrayal of feckless folk and outcasts, flirts and weasels, gasbags and scallywags.
