| Description: |
Features poems that mirror life and show us who we are, who we could have been and who we might become. This book takes you on a journey with the poet through a strange yet also oddly familiar landscape and have arrived somewhere well worth visiting. |
| Synopsis: |
These poems introduce voices that clamour to be heard. The language is vibrantly now, the context the everyday but at times things are a little skewed, as if something slightly odd has been glimpsed out of the corner of the eye. The poet inhabits a world where angels comment on tea towels in a gift shop, Medusa travels on the train, Emily Dickinson waits for a phone call, a woman has dinner with Goya's polished skull. However reality is brought sharply into focus by the trafficked east European girl, the Zimbabwean immigrant woman, the carer, the sex chat line worker, the people in the all night petrol station. |
