"Michael McKimm writes beautifully, at once vivid, embodied and restrained.[...] What a marvellous ear he has. As his reader I was engaged by openness, alertness and love, qualities which characterise this memorable, sensitive collection."

Really enjoying this beautiful and tender book by @MichaelMcKimm published by @WorplePress

[Worple Press @WorplePress]

"the real delight in McKimm’s poetry is how he is not predictable and breaks new ground. He is acutely aware of language and how to bring a poem alive with a sharp phrase."

"Her unifying themes – of nature and love and loss and consolation – reverberate throughout the book as we walk for a spell with this keenly-observant and deeply-informed poet."
