Description
In Neanderthal Boy, Colm Scully's latest poetry collection, history-both personal and political-unfolds through the lens of myth and memory. With a masterful touch, Scully intertwines the past and present, drawing connections between the familiar and the distant. His poems carry a playful fluidity, blending inventive shapes with an approachable, conversational tone. From the quiet moments-like playing indoor cricket by Cork Harbour, lost in daydreams of Jaipur-to the haunting presence of outsiders and forgotten witnesses, Neanderthal Boy offers a space for voices to rise and "find soft footfall at last." Rich in imagery and insight, this collection invites readers to explore the margins of history and the simple beauty in fleeting, everyday moments. Matthew Geden (Poet and Translator)
