These deeply personal, visceral, and frequently wickedly humorous poems explore the darker days of new parenthood, revealing the fears that haunt us when night falls. In poems that are at once lyrical and earthy, yearning and angry, violence against women, the destruction of our environment, and the poisons and pitfalls of 21st-century living are explored. Here, gold is mined from the darkness, and light is sought in the deepest oceans. Pit Lullabies is Jessica Traynor's third collection, following Liffey Swim (2014) and The Quick (2019) from Ireland's Dedalus Press. It has been recommended by the Poetry Book Society.
