About the Book

‘Every devotee of literature and art should read this rare, bright-lit, hard-won book, and every student of life — that is to say, everyone.' - Sebastian Barry In this contemplative short narrative, artist and acclaimed writer Sara Baume charts the daily process of making and writing, exploring what it is to create and to try to live as an artist. Elegantly encompassing images from a work-in-progress, handiwork offers observations that are at once gentle and devastating on grief, renewal, and the migration of birds. handiwork is Baume’s non-fiction debut, written with the keen eye for nature and beauty as well as the extraordinary versatility Sara Baume’s fans have come to expect.

About the Author :
Sara Baume’s work first appeared in newspapers and journals such as the Irish Times, the Guardian, The Stinging Fly and Granta. She won the 2014 Davy Byrnes Short Story Award for ‘SoleSearcher1’, and went on to receive the Hennessy New Irish Writing Award, the Rooney Prize for Literature and an Irish Book Award for Best Newcomer in 2015. Her debut novel Spill Simmer Falter Wither was longlisted for the Guardian First Book Award, the Warwick Prize for Writing, the Desmond Elliott Prize for New Fiction and the International Dublin Literary Award. It was shortlisted for the Costa First Novel Award, and won the Geoffrey Faber Memorial Prize. She grew up in East Cork and now lives in West Cork.

Review :
LONGLISTED FOR THE RATHBONES FOLIO PRIZE ‘Every devotee of literature and art should read this rare, bright-lit, hard-won book, and every student of life — that is to say, everyone.' SEBASTIAN BARRY 'A beautifully written memoir and meditation on grief, nature and the creative process.' TIMES LITERARY SUPPLEMENT 'Embodies the same thoughtful originality and striking close ups of the natural world as her two novels.' IRISH INDEPENDENT 'Beautiful... could be compared with Denise Riley’s Time Lived, Without Its Flow in how beautifully rendered the passing of days is – or with Maggie Nelson’s Bluets, in how delicately the poetry of the work is presented on the page.' IRISH TIMES 'Its pint-sized print edition is itself an objet d’art.' THE TIMES 'handiwork demands to be experienced and felt. It is no less than Baume's will, her pains, her talents, her tenderness.' RTE.
