Fold: Shortlisted for the Seamus Heaney First Collection Prize 2020
Shortlisted for the Seamus Heaney First Collection Prize 2020
"Observant and imaginative, these poems have a wonderful sense of drama, and above all know how to begin and how to stop. The best poems here have a sharpness and brilliance that transcends the private material that can sometimes be powerful for the writer but not for anyone else. Rich in a sympathetic sensibility, they are outward-looking as well as inwardly analytical. And they manage to be funny as well."
