"Rich and sensual, spare and poised, witty, elegiac...Ace's range is remarkable, and her writing resonates with a developed lyrical sensibility. The result is an engaging and wonderfully humane first collection of poems. Breathtaking." Jane McKie, winner of the 2011 Edwin Morgan Poetry Prize "These are poems to enjoy: bold and sensual, moving and humorous. Bursting with energy and delight they draw the reader into vividly observed experiences - of family, of nature and of imagination. In a world where so many poets write about gloom and despair, Patricia Ace's witty, distinctive and unashamedly female voice offers a breath of fresh air." Vicki Feaver, winner of the Forward Poetry Prize for Best Single Poem
