Maura Dooley's poetry is remarkable for embracing both lyricism and
political consciousness, for its fusion of head and heart. These
qualities have won her wide acclaim. Helen Dunmore (in Poetry
Review) admired her 'sharp and forceful' intelligence. Adam Thorpe
praised her ability 'to enact and find images for complex
feelings... Her poems have both great delicacy and an undeniable
toughness...she manages to combine detailed domesticity with
lyrical beauty, most perfectly in the metaphor of memory '
(Literary Review). Sound Barrier presents a selection from earlier
collections of work written over a twenty-year period.
