Devon Maid Walking - Clare Morris

Available from 11th March 2023 - This Collection of poetry by Clare Morris is an outstanding ‘Tour de Force’ from Exeter Slam Champion 2022.

Devon Maid Walking simultaneously combines Clare Morris's playful deftness of touch and tremendous personal presence with her erudite reverence for language, place, nature and history. Unashamedly contemporary, the work is at times almost shockingly present; and yet, even as our attention is repeatedly drawn to the exquisite uniqueness of each individual moment, the author somehow maintains a constant and deep connection to the ancient sweep of time.

Clare Morris is a one-off and Devon Maid Walking is a fascinating, approachable, very human and transcendently beautiful collection. Simply brilliant.
