I just noticed that comments were possible, and realised that others have already said what I wanted to say. But thank you, Helena, what a review! I think every one of us poets want a reader like that - attuned to the detail, tone and subtleties of a collection. Another book I need...

I so enjoyed reading this review (and the lines you've quoted from the book). Thank you, Helena. And a Happy New Year to you.

Great review of this superb 'intensely alive' collection by Anne Berkeley. Quietly brilliant!
