About this product

Product Information

From the London Zoo to an Essex village and the Arctic Circle, Greenlaw explores elements of place-the child-hood landscapes we leave behind, those we travel toward, and those that we believe to be missing from our lives. Greenlaw's restless, inquisitive tone builds to make Minsk a hypnotic collection from one of the leading poets of her generation. Camel Hair Every few years it becomes a question of backbone. Anhedonia, not love of winter but a loss of the feel of the world, a way ahead of the cold. Even the cells refuse to talk to one another. As black and white as a two-hour wait on the kerb of a six-lane arterial road, in a secondhand straw-coloured Dior coat, for the last bus and its overload to accelerate past out of its own well-oiled backsplash.

Reviews
Greenlaw's poems are dreams of travel and longing for home-- they have the clarity and purity one associates with cold air., UK PRAISE FOR LAVINIA GREENLAW "Everything Greenlaw touches glitters and resonates, her discipline and skill allowing her to be serious, soulful, knockabout, funny and down-right strange in the course of a few lines."-VOGUE "Her work is . . . lingeringly memorable for the way it combines an excited way of thinking with a calm way of looking." -ANDREW MOTION , THE OBSERVER, Greenlaw''s poems are dreams of travel and longing for home-- they have the clarity and purity one associates with cold air.
