Winner of the David Cohen Prize for Literature 2021. From the
highly acclaimed author of Brooklyn, Colm Toibin's first collection
of poetry explores sexuality, religion and belonging through a
modern lens. Fans of Colm Toibin's novels, including The Magician,
The Master and Nora Webster, will relish the opportunity to
re-encounter Toibin in verse. Vinegar Hill explores the liminal
space between private experiences and public events as Toibin
examines a wide range of subjects - politics, queer love,
reflections on literary and artistic greats, living through COVID,
memory and a fading past, and facing mortality. The poems reflect a
life well-travelled and well-lived; from growing up in the town of
Enniscorthy, wandering the streets of Dublin and Barcelona, and
crossing the bridges of Venice to visiting the White House, readers
will travel through familiar locations and new destinations through
Toibin's unique lens. Within this rich collection of poems written
over the course of several decades, shot through with keen
observation, emotion and humour, Toibin offers us lines and verses
to provoke, ponder and cherish.
