- Morrisey is a trailblazer in modern poetry, four times shortlisted for and once winner of the T. S. Eliot Prize. Born in Northern Ireland in 1972 and raised in Belfast, Morrisey gained her education at Trinity College, Dublin, before residing in Japan and New Zealand. She is the current writer-in-residence at Queen’s University, Belfast, since 2002. Her five volumes of poetry (four of which were nominated for the T. S. Eliot Prize, the fifth winning the award) explore the voices of some famous women across time, in their own voice, including Dorothy Wordsworth and the journey of Belfast city from war-zone to vibrant, modern city space. Her most recent volume, Parallax (2013) was internationally recognised, translating the poetry of photographs in Belfast and beyond, reflecting ideas of perception versus reality in a modern world.

And the thread about balance that runs throughout the collection. There are domestic poems interspersed by the odd exotic story.
