Behind the Lines

"I have been an admirer of Chris Considine's intelligent poetry for some years now and have been awaiting her next volume with pleasurable anticipation. She writes with straightforward honesty, infectious energy and real wit. Her subject matter may begin as an immediate response to a particular, quite ordinary stimulus but often leads to the discovery of something unusual. From witty one-offs to in-depth explorations through carefully-constructed sequences, her poems satisfy. They are varied, touching and literate." - Ann Drysdale. [goodreads.com]
