Her poems resonate with an unnerving elegance and honesty and her voice is a trustworthy and intimate one. She writes about family and loss with ceremonial care. Her language is lucid, her images stark and striking. Indeed, her poems explore the life of the heart with an unflinching integrity.-Paul Perry "Breda Sullivan writes from the heart.

She elevates the mundane by exploring the rich and varied threads of domestic living but she also indulges herself and takes us on flights of fantasy and imagination."-Gear id O'Brien, Midland Magazine
