More About the Author
Product Description
Book Description
A passionate series of poems about what it is like to be a women involved in a difficult love affair. Ruth Padel previous book Fusewire received excellent reviews and was named by the Guardian 'the best book of poetry published in these islands in 1996'.
Product Description
Ruth Padel's passionate and daring new collection is a woman's eye view of a love affair. Shifting between vulnerability and guilt, innocence and doubt, tenderness and frustration, teasing reproach and the exaltation of deep love and sexual happiness, Padel's extraordinarily bold and intimate book explores the complexity of emotions that go with falling in love. Wonderfully versatile in tone, it blends the lyrical and the colloquial, darkness and light, seriousness and wit, myth and the Spice Girls. It includes the poem that won the 1996 National Poetry Competition 'Icicles round a tree in Dumfriesshire'. (19980108)
