About the book

Half-Life is a riveting new collection full of family dramas, global warming and conversations with Death. The poems swing between Mexico City, New York, the Peloponnese, a Staffordshire village and home, engaging with the various beauties to be found in art, nature and the church. Then, in an extended sequence, Death relates stories of her encounters with the world's peoples and cultures."He writes with a controlled passion… using sophisticated effects to locate the significant and develop its larger emotional truth."

John Levett"Compelling and moving." Poetry Review on
