Synopsis :

In these playful, considered poems, the emotional impacts of small moments are captured in a relaxed and natural way. Verbal gymnastics and powerful metaphors are laid down in spare, lively words. This confident first collection from a writer who has worked primarily in the world of sound combines accessible language with lyricism and an ear tuned to nature.
