The Day Lit by Memory

Résumé du livre

'Elaine Barker has a feeling for the poetic moment, an eye for detail, and the deftness and delicacy of style to capture the experience for the reader. Her vivid, mercurial poems are streetwise, often humorous and always open to other people, whether Greek neighbours, a blind woman on a tram, a child busking in Mendoza, or a gipsy woman in Bucharest. This is a rich, varied collection.' - Jan Owen
