This is a collection by an accomplished poet. One who sees the world as it is, with courage and clear vision. It is rich and varied, covering family, characters, people, social concerns and landscape, all written with energy, humour and rhythm. I like the way the poet has divided her collection into sections, it means the reader can dip into a section, drawn in by the subtitle. I deliberately saved the section Just For Fun, until last. A joy to read, reflect on and return to.
