Poems
Before she became one of the world's most important and loved novelists, Margaret Atwood was a pinet. Dearly is her first collection in over decade, It brings together many of her most recognisable and celebrated themes, but distilled - from minutely perfect descriptions of the natural world to startlingly witty encounters with aliens, from pressing political issues to myth and legend
By turns moving, playful and wise, the poems gathered in Dearly are about absunces and endings, ageing and retrospection, but also about gifts and renewals. They explore bodies and minds in flux, as well as the everyday objects and rituals that embed us in the present. Werewolves, sirens and dreams make their appearance, as do various forms of animal life and fragments of our damaged environment
Dearly is a pure Atwood delight, and long-term readers and new fons alike will treasure its insight, empathy and humour.
