Paula Meehan, Poetry, GenderRésumé
Paula Meehan writes of women’s experiences - of love and loss, sexual] union, miscarriage, pregnancy, marriage under strain, longing and passion, - without being self-conscious or defensive. Although her poetry often reflects the poverty and deprivation of Dublin’s inner city, her response is warm and positive. Her natural exuberance spills into a poetry often characterised by Jong incantatory lines. That is her the dominant style, the other, more restrained, has shorter lines and stanzas. But the voice is similar in each.
