Often dark, but with a sharply concise and compelling style, these poems draw you in with a ‘look at this!’ urgency. This is a collection of voices: dodos and wallpaper chant obsessively, a cheese weeps for the calf whose milk it stole, a woman turned into soap dreams of her apotheosis as she washes into the sea. Uneasy yet fruitful juxtapositions abound: poems of war are set against poems of the natural world, a glimpse of a sparrowhawk is offset by a wider vision of the ‘River flowing under the Bank of England’. The series, ‘Meditations on the Hours’, that highlight the domestic and the personal, is at the core of this group of lyrical poems. The poet’s language is both keen and voluptuous, contemplative and passionate. “Marianne Burton's poems combine grace with intelligence, toughness with delicacy, and thoughtfulness with sensuality. This means her work is full of surprising challenges and reconciliations - all of which bring rich rewards to the reader.” – Andrew Motion “Her poems are clever and funny, mystifying the familiar and drawing out surprising double meanings that live with the reader long after the poem has ended. She frequently begins with apparently innocuous observations but by the time the poem closes she has taken the reader on a journey that ends far from where we might have anticipated.” – PBS Bulletin on her pamphlet “In one poem, Marianne Burton talks of seeing the meninges throbbing through a sleeping baby's fontanelle, a suitable image for a poet whose work throbs intelligently with uneasy but intriguing images - of the body and, often, of night-time. Her debut collection introduces her measured and nettling style to the British poetry scene.” – Roddy Lumsden “Formally adept and inventive, linguistically charged and scrupulous, emotionally truthful and intelligent, Marianne Burton's stylish poems demand and reward re-reading.” – Michael Laskey \"This debut collection is remarkable not only for its assurance of technique, but for the poet’s ability to make incisive connections with the things in life that somehow exist at the periphery of our vision – that we too often miss, or sometimes simply prefer not to see. This poetry seems to look two ways: on the one hand to be anchored in the tradition and the lyric, while on the other to look forward to the experimental.\" – Frances Spurrier (Write out Loud)\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/section\u003e","brand":"Cyngor Llyfrau Cymru","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":58819440804214,"sku":"9781781720387","price":8.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0041\/5340\/9585\/files\/9781781720387.jpg?v=1790350095","url":"https:\/\/www.siopypentan.co.uk\/products\/she-inserts-the-key-9781781720387","provider":"Siop Y Pentan","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
