Synopsis


Sparks is the third collection of passionate, poignant poetry from much-loved Hull based author Norah Hanson. The fiery wit and hard-won wisdom that characterised her previous collections are here, intact, with a new level of clarity and purpose adding weight to the words without losing the warmth, wonder, and laugh-out-loud observational skills that have won Norah readers across the world.

Now six-times a great-grandmother, the poet's life experience shines through each page, shedding light on the past and illuminating the heart of our human experience. There are no riddles or literary exercises here; Norah's refreshingly (and deceptively)direct language seems to rise from the earth itself, channelled through the writer's pen into each new verse.
