Nice Morning for It, Adam

O'Sullivan, Vincent

Nice Morning for It, Adam continues and builds on the achievement of Vincent O'Sullivan's recent highly-regarded collections, Lucky Table and Seeing You Asked. These poems reveal a powerful intellect brought to bear on a world of continual change and curiosity. Stepping deftly through a breathtaking range of voices and forms, this book places poems of wry satirical humour against those of remarkable sweetness. What is offered is a poetry of openness and moving humility, as well as an insight into the peculiar challenges of being human. "There is a kind of luminous spirituality about O'Sullivan's poetry, that long after you have read the poems, continues to reside in the objects or situations the poems describe." — Anna Jackson.
