      Throw in the Vowels is a retrospective from Rita Ann Higgins: provocative and heart-warming poems of high jinks, jittery grief and telling social comment by a gutsy, anarchic chronicler of the Irish dispossessed. The 2010 reissue of this title included a free audio CD of poems read by the author now replaced by a QR code linking with these recordings online. She has since published two later collections, Ireland Is Changing Mother (2011) and Tongulish (2016).
