Paperback. Condition: New. The Telling by Julia Webb is a distinctive and acutely-observed collection of poems that unravel the intricacies at the heart of human relationships - an insistent, quietly fierce tour de force from this Forward Prize commended poet. Moving and dark, we uncover the things that go unspoken between people despite their closeness.In turning her forensic focus on what makes us human, and in particular what it is that glues us together or causes us to come apart, Julia Webb's poetry examines the wreckage of complex lives to understand where the fault lines and fractures lie. What are the stories that construct our families and relationships, and who gets to tell them? Can we trust the stories we inherit, and what happens when we recover the right to tell things for ourselves? These compelling, taut poems crackle with the electricity of the untold - of flawed humans and hurt, of daring and being, of reclaiming and persisting.…

Paperback. Condition: New. To live is to lose, to grieve is to be human. Part elegy, part lament, part love song; Julia Webb's fourth collection Grey Time is a powerful examination of what it is to love and lose, of our relationship with both grief and the dead. Exploring the many facets and nuances of loss, Webb explores what happens before and after the sudden death of a loved one and how our relationship with them changes over time as new secrets are revealed and old hurts heal.This book is not defined by death, however, as these refreshing, evocative poems study and witness the myriad losses of a lifetime. Julia Webb turns her forensic eye on the complexity of unresolved relationships; on what is said or not said, how people behave under duress, how violence can creep into our lives, as well as exploring her own recently discovered neurodivergence. Grey Time is a revelatory collection that takes bold leaps, binding the strange and surreal to the everyday - to make possible a place where a one mother turns owl, and another mother will teach her son how to fly.…

Paperback. Condition: New. The poems in Threat, Julia Webb's second collection, train their eagle-eyes on life at the margins, and on family, love, loss, belonging and not belonging. They are not afraid to visit the uncomfortable places where true humanity resides. Threat is an examination of self from multiple perspectives. Its narratives of both past and present tread a fine line between fantasy and reality - these are the lives we have led, the lives we could have led, or the lives we are leading still. Forensically detailed and disturbing, the dark and sometimes brutal undertow of small-town existence seeps to the surface of these unsettling poems.…

Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. Bird Sisters exerts a powerful hold, as if to read it is to be haunted by things one half-remembers. Moniza AlviAll is strange or estranged in fact, but it is articulated in poems of supple inventive concentration. In that sense Bird Sisters is a book that casts deep shadows. George SzirtesJulia Webbs Bird Sisters is a surreal journey through sisterhood and the world of the family via the natural world. Fascinated by the otherness of things, her poems expose places and relationships that are not always entirely comfortable places to exist. Many of them feature transformations of some kind both real and metaphorical: a woman wears a dress of live bees or becomes a bird and family members turn into owls and sparrows.In exploring the ways in which both adults and children are casually cruel to one another, often within a mythological framework, Julia Webb blurs the boundaries between fairy tale and reality. These families are terrifying in their complexity and dysfunction, yet utterly compelling and convincing and with dark undercurrents of humour that ensure the poems are never bleak. Bird Sisters is a surreal journey through sisterhood and family via the natural world. Fascinated by the "otherness" of things, Julia Webb's poems often feature transformations - a woman wears a dress of live bees, family members turn into owls and sparrows. "To read it is to be haunted by things one half-remembers." - Moniza Alvi Shipping may be from multiple locations in the US or from the UK, depending on stock availability.…
