A Poesia Não É Inofensiva: Poética Antologia (2021, Toma Aí Um Poema)
"No começo dessa semana, um poeta me escreveu um e-mail perguntando como ele deveria divulgar os seus poemas. Contei a ele que, na poesia, as coisas começaram a funcionar melhor para mim quando comecei a fazer mais pelos outros e, em consequência, mais pela sociedade. Ao responder, também, fiz questão de ressaltar o fato das pessoas saberem que sou poeta, mas conhecerem mais os meus projetos do que as minhas produções literárias ~ poemas.

As You Were
Shortlisted for the Rathbones Folio Prize - Winner of the 2021 Kate O'Brien Award Sinead Hynes is a tough, driven, funny young property developer with a terrifying secret. No-one knows it: not her fellow patients in a failing hospital, and certainly not her family. She has confided only in Google and a shiny magpie. But she can't go on like this, tirelessly trying to outstrip her past and in mortal fear of her future. Across the ward, Margaret Rose is running her chaotic family from her rose-gold Nokia. In the neighbouring bed, Jane, rarely but piercingly lucid, is searching for a decent bra and for someone to listen. And Sinead needs them both. As You Were is about intimate histories, institutional failures, the kindness of strangers, and the darkly present past of modern Ireland; about women's stories and women's struggles; about seizing the moment to be free. Wildly funny, desperately tragic, inventive and irrepressible, As You Were introduces a brilliant voice in Irish fiction with a book that is absolutely of our times.

We Went to England
A vivid, often humorous slice of autobiography, We Went To England spans the Atlantic OceanRochester, New York to London, the Great Depression and the second World War. Children of an American mother and an English father, Elaine and her sisters have a privileged, sheltered lifemore akin to the world of Jane Austen than that of Angela's Ashes. Elaine, though, finds there is always a BUT. You have to learn to be a Lady. To obey a set of rigid ruleswhat's "done" and "not done". Too many of the rules she learns only after breaking them. With the War in 1939 everything changes. Being a Lady is no longer so importantsurviving is. There are gas masks, air raids, bombs and the constant fear of death. After September 11, 2001, Elaine's story has fresh relevance. As a young girl she learned that in the presence of constant low-level fear, life goes onand so do laughter and purpose.
