Sara Berkeley Tolchin's eighth book is full of vibrant, airy poems that explore loss, the natural world, and the ways that we are changed by our relationships. "The title of Tolchin's What Just Happened catches the way in which her poems emerge out of events and moments when the poet is caught unawares or somehow reminded of another life," remarks John McAuliffe in his review in The Irish Times.

Sara Berkeley Tolchin was born in Dublin in 1967 and educated at Trinity College, Dublin, and the University of California, Berkeley. Her first collection of poems, Penn, was published to unprecedented critical acclaim when she was just 19, and was shortlisted for the Irish Book Awards and the Sunday Tribune Arts Awards. Since then she has published Home Movie Nights (poems, 1989), The Swimmer in the Deep Blue Dream (stories, 1992), Facts About Water (poems, 1994), Shadowing Hannah (a novel, 1999), Strawberry Thief (poems, 2005) and The View from Here (poems, 2011). She was nominated for a Pushcart Prize and was among five finalists, along with Pulitzer Prize winner Paul Muldoon, for 2011's prestigious Irish Times Poetry Now award, won by Nobel Prize laureate Seamus Heaney. Her work has appeared in 25 anthologies, as well as numerous magazines, journals, and newspapers. Sara lives in a rural community just north of San Francisco with her husband and daughter, and works as a hospice nurse. All her previous books were published using her maiden name, Sara Berkeley.
