Book of poetry from award-winning Hastings writer, Mary Rothwell. Mary has been writing all her life - articles, short stories and poems; sometimes they won prizes. She has always "put herself in the way of experience" which W. Somerset Maugham said all writers should do. Mary Rothwell writes poetry full of beauty and strength. She invites us in to share atmosphere, evokes our senses. Moments of delight in the imagery she uses, as in a 'bevy of gulls' gossip' and 'the cat blots a cool concrete patch beside dry grass.' Quiet moments as well as vivid pauses are here in her poems. Her memories live in well-constructed lines and phrases. Her technique is sound, her imagination and perception create life in her poems.
