"Poems come from ordinary experiences and objects, I think. Out of memory—a dress I lent my daughter on her way back to college; a newspaper photograph of war; a breast self-exam; the tooth fairy; Calvinist parents who beat up their children; a gesture of love; seeing oneself naked over age 50 in a set of bright hotel bathroom mirrors."

About Me
- Niamh MacAlister
- Dublin, Ireland
- I pay the bills by transcribing books into Braille. I produce Irish interest books and books by Irish authors for the largest Braille leisure reading library collection in Ireland held by the NCBI. When I'm not working I'm writing, or at least thinking about it! Click on the label "My Writing" for information on all my writing endeavours.
