I’m delighted to be included- just finished my first read through (will return often I expect) it’s a thing of beauty! The poems talk to each other in surprising and deep connections and the result is a real temperature-check of our time. Congratulations 🙌🏻

“Across poems of heartbreak and honesty, memory and mourning – and through unlikely companionship with a widowed Mary Shelley – Catherine Redford’s debut collection is visceral, profound and alive with what it is to be human, to have lost and to find ways to continue to love.”
