I'm so grateful to @jesstraynor.bsky.social for this generous review of In Spring We Turned to Water in Poetry Ireland Review 146. Míle Buíochas, @doirepress.bsky.social, @poetryireland.bsky.social

A tremendous collection of work being publisher this month.

Grateful for this.

Grateful for this opportunity to read at Circling the Square festival in Thurles, 01 Nov. Looking forward to beginning with a favourite Dennis O' Driscoll poem, too.

'McKenna speckles the collection with many surprising images, some contrasting nut this reader trusts that each one is placed into the poems as deliberately as the thief acquiring her collection of keys.'

Review of FOUR THOUSAND KEYS by @lindamckenna.bsky.social in the new issue of Skylight 47

Poetry review: A debut that urges us to care Divided into five sections, this is a collection that very deliberately speaks to Ireland in the 2020s

'... a book filled with outstanding poems. Horgan gives voice to a range of characters and concerns not often seen in Irish literature.'
