In Mark Ward’s confident second collection, Real Estate, we are mired in uncertainty, surrounded by dreams that are both instructions and warnings. On the page, in life, and in quiet thoughts lurking, this book wonders how to successfully create your days when the ground has given way; when house and home has become surreal, a horror film, a ghost story; when dumb flesh is determined to drag us through life’s little terrors, through grief and loss and heartbreak. Upfront and oblique, daring and inventive, these poems – with a rich dexterity of language and form – are an attempt to understand where one’s place might be in this whirlwind world

The Irish Interest web platform is purely a provider of information about new publications. The aim of the site is to have every publishing house in Ireland adding their latest titles as they become available. Hyperlinks to each title bring users of the site directly to the publisher's web area or to a sales site where books can be purchased.
