So much more than escape or survive
Through the galvanisation of love, time and patience
I’ll take hold of my story and thrive.
After life that was seldom what life ought to be
Through laughter and love I’ll be whole
This story is mine from the cover to spine
And the narrative I will control
Whether she’s writing letters to her younger self, advocating for women’s rights or adapting fairy tales to process an abusive relationship, Len’s voice is bold, unashamedly frank and unmistakably hers.
The poems in this collection, both funny and fiercely feminist, announce a formidable new talent. Moving deftly between English and Scots, poyums is as approachable as it is affecting.
I seldom read poetry...it makes me feel stupid at my lack of understanding. This book spoke to me. Not one poem did not hit home with a vengeance. I was so happy to understand the Scots and the content of each and every one of her poems. A book for every woman. A book to reread often. ( )
