About this ebook
Sublime brand new and long awaited poetry from this elegant and meticulous poet. Her words contain such beauty, such poise, such a grasp for atmosphere. What has the body of a white mouse - held carefully, lovingly – to show us? What is art? And how can we live with death? We are thrilled that she has chosen us to help launch her first new set of poems since 2015. We have gasped, we have hung on every word, on every turn of phrase. We can’t wait for you to see them!
