Poetry. "Rarely—very rarely indeed—a poet arrives in the world full-blown, possessed of musical mastery, cognitive penetration, yea, wisdom of the sort that eludes almost all of us almost all of the time. And utterly fresh, with a voice not-heard-before. Lizzie Hutton is just such a poet. The vision in these poems is radical—it cuts to the root, and captures the ebb and flow, the actual felt textures of psychic and ethical awakening. And the forms devised to manifest the vision are radical too, in the true, best sense of the word, so confidently achieved they can dispense altogether with fanfare. This book is a cause for joy"—Linda Gregerson.
