Sexy Fruit (2018)
Poems
Sexy Fruit finds Alice Kinsella dipping between graveyards, nightclubs, sexual health clinics, confessional booths, J-Stor and many more delightfully strange and seedy spots.
Empty House (editor) (Doire, 2021)
Empty House is a multi-genre anthology of Irish and international writing responding to the climate crisis. The leading challenge facing our world today, here writers share pieces that address what it is like to live in a world imperiled by climate chaos. Interpretations vary from celebrations of the natural world we are at risk of losing, anxious prophecies of the Earth we may soon live in, to constructive hope of how we can prevent environmental catastrophe. Together they form a rallying cry of human responses to a systemic problem.
Wake of the Whale
It is a little-known fact that from 1908–1922, two Norwegian-owned whaling stations operated in County Mayo, not far from the area that would be at the heart of the Corrib gas controversy a century later.
The Ethics of Cats
Alice Kinsella’s The Ethics of Cats is an incisive, unflinching interrogation of memory, survival, and inheritance, written with the lyricism and wry clarity that defines her work.
Milk
When poet Alice Kinsella becomes a mother, she finds herself utterly lost. As she searches for answers to the question of her new identity, she considers the mothers and writers who came before her.
