Description

A lovely linguistic tension runs through this first collection of poems by Kathleen Wall, a desire to close the grieving space between words and feeling: the taut ache of separation, the mute solace of animals and gardens, a daughter's silent discoveries. These are gentle, serious poems which draw on all the senses to discover how the world is made, how love and sorrow form the final record of experience.
