Verse Cycles - Caroline Burrows

Available 18th March 2024. Pre-order now.
Caroline Burrows’ poetry whether read or heard has a compelling quality that communicates with engaging clarity across time, place and experience. When mixed with detailed research and an assured understanding of poetic form in all its intricacies, it makes for a deliciously intoxicating cocktail. Poetry for Caroline is as much part of what she is as what she does. She writes poetry with elegant assurance but, more than this, she lives by the beliefs she explores in her poems. Verse Cycles, as the title suggests, invites us to delight in the journey as well as the destination; there are plenty of side roads to discover as, at Caroline’s subtle prompting, we retrace our steps to admire the view from a different perspective. I am immensely proud to introduce Caroline’s collection. She is a remarkable poet of talent, heart, scholarship and understanding. Enjoy the journey!
