Description
Stone Girl is Mary Noonan's second collection of poems, exploring the allure of stone and its connection to the human experience. The poet delves into themes of family, travel, love, and art, weaving together narratives that navigate the divide between past and present.
In this powerful work, Noonan summons ghosts from her native Cork and Paris, where she reflects on the nature of skin and memory. Her poems are a true performer, begging to be read aloud for their sonic delights as well as their unique visual tapestry.
