Synopsis

Kate Innes's first poetry collection - including prize-winning poems, recent work from her residency in an exhibition of Arts & Crafts stained glass, and work influenced by the mythic and natural history of Britain.

Kate Innes earths her poems in the land, taking you with her as she bridges the personal and the landscape. Here are love-songs to the hills of the Welsh borders, to children at play, to history, myth and mystery, encompassing a satisfying breadth of styles, both musical and highly visual.

With a gentleness that hides a rigorous strength of vision, her poems persuasively inhabit the skins of both beast and human, and are equally at home in the past and the present. Seeking out the charged spaces of transformation in art and life, these poems touch the mysterious circuits of our being.
