GALBRAITH, Janet - "re-membering"


Janet Galbraith: 're-membering'



“In what little sun/ this day allows” Janet Galbraith writes poems of rare clarity, precision and beauty: poems as luminous as shards of coloured glass and that score and cut as deep. Deceptively simple lines reveal unexpected depths and shades and are saturated with meaning. Troubling, mysterious, relentless, affirming, this is an unforgettable collection.
