However, she died four days before advance copies arrived. The book was praised for its distinctive mix of comedy, dark humor, and disturbance, exploring corruption and abuse in private spaces. Her subsequent collection, Gethsemane Day, was prepared from typescript and published posthumously. The Poems of Dorothy Molloy collects her complete edition of poems, including her manuscript work and unpublished material, to meet the growing readership of this startling talent. \u003c\/blockquote\u003e\u003cp\u003e\n                                                            \u003cstrong\u003eFormat\u003c\/strong\u003e: Paperback \/ softback\u003cbr\u003e\n                              \u003cstrong\u003eLength\u003c\/strong\u003e: 296 pages\u003cbr\u003e\n                              \u003cstrong\u003ePublication date\u003c\/strong\u003e: 18 November 2021\u003cbr\u003e\n                              \u003cstrong\u003ePublisher\u003c\/strong\u003e: Faber \u0026amp; Faber\u003cbr\u003e\n                          \u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003eWhen Faber prepared Dorothy Molloy's debut Hare Soup (2004) for publication, she was a rising star in the making. However, tragedy struck, and she passed away four days before advance copies arrived. With its distinctive and unsettling mix of comedy and complicity, dark humor, and disturbance (a feminist burlesque that has seen her work christened as gurlesque), Hare Soup stripped the veneer from the niceties of relations in family life and the Catholic church, turning its inventive and sexually charged gaze to corruption and abuse in our most private spaces. The book rightly won accolades and admirers, and was followed by a further, posthumous collection, Gethsemane Day (2006) that was prepared from typescript.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe Poems of Dorothy Molloy gathers these two collections alongside her manuscript work, which appeared as Long-Distance Swimmer (Salmon, 2009), and the remaining body of unpublished material to present a complete edition of poems to meet the growing readership of this startling talent.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\n                            \u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 334g\n                            \u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDimension\u003c\/strong\u003e: 197 x 131 x 25 (mm)\n                            \u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eISBN-13\u003c\/strong\u003e: 9780571348473\n                            \u003cbr\u003e \u003cstrong\u003eEdition number\u003c\/strong\u003e: Main\n                          \u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Dorothy Molloy","offers":[{"title":"Paperback \/ softback","offer_id":44097015709946,"sku":"9780571348473","price":8.04,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0522\/4297\/2845\/products\/829551eddc9b3b40879f09b354f9b156.jpg?v=1638850793","url":"https:\/\/shulphink.com\/products\/poems-of-dorothy-molloy","provider":"Shulph Ink","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
