Synopsis

A Train Hurtles West is Maeve O Sullivan s new collection of haiku poetry, following on from Double Rainbow (2005, with Kim Richardson) and Initial Response (2011), and the publication of the first collection of her longer poetry, Vocal Chords in 2014 (all from Alba Publishing). This body of work marks her growing maturity as an accomplished haijin, accompanied and informed by life events, most notably the illness and death of her mother. Other subjects which continue to inspire O Sullivan are music, travel and the passage of the seasons.
