“Extraordinary poems of self-encounter, of divergence, of bruised bodies out of balance with themselves, laid bare – and of new found identities, and joyous release.”
Richard Marggraf Turley
“This book is an astonishing and totally life-enhancing achievement.”
Bernard O’Donoghue
"With grace, thoughtfulness and often humour these poems open out beyond case history into the field of shared experience with which most readers will be bound to empathise.”
Phillip Gross
"Carney invokes the power of words to nurture compassion and healing, making for a welcome and timely debut."
Carrie Etter
"Rachel Carney's debut collection delights in its curiosity and surrealism. This is a collection that 'swims out into deep ocean currents' to explore the workings of the mind and the impacts of this on the self."
Katherine Stansfield
“Extraordinary poems of self-encounter, of divergence, of bruised bodies out of balance with themselves, laid bare – and of new found identities, and joyous release.”
