Passport

The second collection by Richie McCaffery, following on from his acclaimed debut Cairn, explores place and displacement, boundaries and borders. At the heart of these poems, McCaffery asks us to consider what belonging is, and how we find our place in life and in language. Richie McCaffery's poems operate usually in a small compass, but are charged personal - without pushing it in your face - direct, clear and affecting in what they uncover and what they choose to disclose. - Sandy Hutchinson
