About the book

Exploring place and displacement, boundaries and borders,

Passport is the second collection by Richie McCaffery, and follows his acclaimed debut

Cairn (Nine Arches Press, 2014). In moving to the Belgian city of Ghent, McCaffery finds «What I see and what happens / are two different countries.» In a place of dualities and unrealities, the poems find the usual definitions themselves becoming unstable; the old currency that is no longer valid, the postcards home unsent and the present tense ill at ease.Written in crisp detail, these fluent poems weigh up whether leaving is a form of running from or coming back to home, wherever that may be. At the heart of this tender and compelling collection, McCaffery writes directly of anxiety, loss and dislocation, asking us to consider what belonging is, and how we find our place in life, in love, and in language.
