About the book
A striking original first collection of poems from Nerys Williams. Using formal strategies similar to modernist painting: abstraction, dislocation, surrealist juxtaposition, the poet conjures a complex music, intriguing narratives, andpoems full of atmosphere that query identity, gender, and the dream of art as a vehicle for emotion and meaning. There is a playful lightness of touch and tone and for every serious inquisition like 'An Anatomy of Arguments' or 'Conversations with Cocteau', there is a poem that will muse on 'Canter's Starstruck Diner, L.A.' or on the 'artifacts' left by Marilyn Monroe, in 'Marilyn's Auction House.
