Suffused with everyday domesticity and parenthood, M(other)ing depicts the challenges and joys, the sense of powerlessness and the ultimate triumph of two women raising their children. ​ ​ "Westnott-O’Brien has written an assured narrative sequence with lyric touches that begins by investigating mother-as-otherness but which ends in belonging." - David McLoghlin "In lively poems, rich with sensory detail, Westnott-O'Brien looks at early motherhood with a tender honesty and unique charm. Gentle but perceptive, M(other)hood has real emotional power." - Rosamund Taylor

About Us

Irish Interest in based on one very simple idea: to bring the contents of any Irish bookshop to people everywhere, especially those outside Ireland who do not have the possibility of keeping abreast of new books published in Ireland. 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.
