  From the winner of both the Saltire and the Forward Poetry Prize, a beautiful collection of poems that follows the experiences of motherhood from conception and birth to baby and toddler

  Nothing transforms our lives like parenthood. Kate Clanchy's intimate and daring sequence of poems follows the switchback ride of human emotions from conception through the first years of new life. Newborn is Clanchy's most powerful and accomplished book of poetry to date. It will delight her many admirers and find her a host of new readers. This painfully unblinking but ultimately celebratory account of the most extraordinary event in our shared experience is essential reading for all parents and parents-to-be.
