by Lavinia Greenlaw (Author)
The central theme of Greenlaw's second collection is the unpredictable act of communication, from the mechanical to the miraculous. Other poems are concerned with attempts at preservation - plundered relics, the stately home, an iron lung. The title poem won the Forward Prize in 1998.
