‘Marvellous!’, ‘Incredible!’ and ‘An extraordinary day!’ – What a beautiful way to end The Poet’s House Oxford‘s winter/spring Day School programme with the marvellous,incredible and extraordinary Claire Crowther‘s Strategies Towards Publication.
Of her work – ‘The entire sequence [Incense, Flarestack Poets 2011] is a minor revelation…she is able to locate poetry asleep in the language of science.’ David Morley, Poetry Review, 2011;
‘Reading this collection [A Stretch of Closures, Shearsman, 2007] is like coming out into sunlight after spending too long indoors; the poems have the capacity to astonish…’ Cliff Yates, The North 40, 2007.
Thank you, dear Claire. Please come again.
