WINNER of the T.S. Eliot Prize 2018 One of Bustle 's 12 Most Anticipated Poetry Collections for 2018 Hannah Sullivans debut collection is a revelation three long poems of fresh ambition, intensity, and substance. Though each poem stands apart, their inventive and looping encounters make for a compelling unity. "You, Very Young in New York" captures a great American city, in all its alluring detail. It is a wry and tender study of romantic possibility, disappointment, and the obduracy of innocence. "Repeat until Time" begins with a move to California and unfolds into an essay on repetition and returning home, at once personal and philosophical. "The Sandpit after Rain" explores the birth of a child and the loss of a father with exacting clarity. In Three Poems , readers will experience Sullivan's work with the same exhilaration as they might the great modernizing poems of Eliot and Pound, but with the unique perspective of a brilliant new female voice.
Hannah Sullivan lives in London with her husband and two sons and is an Associate Professor of English at New College, Oxford. She received her PhD from Harvard in 2008 and taught in California for four years. Her study of modernist writing, The Work of Revision , was published in 2013 and awarded the Rose Mary Crawshay Prize by the British Academy.

Readable, even compelling, poems.
Imagine novels condensed into poetry. "Long" poems, but not really that long. As I said, compelling.

There’s a new sheriff in town...
...and her name is Dr Hannah Sullivan. This collection is virtuosic. The other gunslingers at the TSE didn’t have a chance. It’s a big call this early in the day but Sullivan might just be the most important voice in English contemporary poetry.

Congratulations. TSE would have laughed like a ...
Congratulations to Hannah Sullivan on winning the T S ELIOT PRIZE FOR POETRY. I bought this wonderful book just before the winner was announced. It looked like a good read and I couldn't put it down. A real treat. Thank you. I'm looking forward to the next book.
