In beautifully phrased poems thatsing with an integral music, these poems are suffused in local specifics and language -Groatie Buckies (cowries), wild and hardy swimming women, swarms of jellyfish, puffins, hares in the field, and coasting mallimacks (fulmars)- leaving you feeling like you've justvisited Orkney yourself. In a prayer-like poem about the conservation struggle between thestoat and the Orkney vole, Julie-Ann begs vital questions of how humans live with nature, while the man-made and natural sounds are ever present in the sonic boom of passing fighterjets or the hooley of the northern wind. These poems show Julie-Ann's gift to be able tocapture tiny details and open them up to much wider significances, such as a driftwood tableleg that is washed up and 'separated from its meaning'.Resonant and replete new poemsfrom a poet keenly attuned to her environs.\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Pages:\u003c\/strong\u003e 32\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e 0.08 x 8.27 x 5.83 IN\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePublication Date:\u003c\/strong\u003e July 20, 2024\u003c\/div\u003e\n            ","brand":"Books by splitShops","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":50343961264365,"sku":"9781917150033","price":10.78,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0020\/8918\/9441\/files\/JaxKdjRzQc9781917150033.webp?v=1785178245","url":"https:\/\/www.webster.direct\/products\/hame-paperback","provider":"Webster.Direct","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
