a truth-telling humour that is both gentle and ruthless

plus a pair of bad-tempered sisters

have achieved the unusual distinction of being neither "confessional" nor "intellectual" in the usual senses of those words

The Ethics of Cats by Alice Kinsella Daljit Nagra a truth-telling humour that isThe Ethics of Cats is a collection about the past, the personal, the dystopian. The poet intertwines Ireland's colonial history with an examination of how the crises of mental health and housing affect those in domestic spaces. A house can be a home, a threat. As the climate emergency unfolds, what does it mean to have a home, a cat by the fire, dead birds in the porch? It is a book about power, empathy, and survival. Alice Kinsella is an Arts Council
