Eavan Boland — Eviction: This poem offers critique into a moment of Irish history when Ireland, through independence, was rising to the light. But Irish women were facing lives as constricted in independence as under empire.

This poem is a corrective, turning the gaze on historians, as well as history. by Poetry Unbound
