Better Houses (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781912109661)

She tramps with humor, love, and loss across the UK, even the globe, seeking a place to call home. Better Houses charts the move from childhood to adult life with wit and wonder. In a state of constant displacement, the poems flit from tents and gypsy caravans to boarding school, to lodgings and house sitting. The collection offers a half-remembered, half-invented life of pub crawl dates and doors slamming, as the narrators fall in and out of love and a life packing and unpacking boxes. These poems hunt fossils and comets, escape fires and great white sharks, consider life on other planets, and prophesize white witches.
