It includes a group of fictional narratives and a few erotic or, more properly, anti-erotic poems for which Fleur Adcock is known. There are also celebrations of places, reflections of art and language and affectionalte tributes to friends. This collection is reissued following publication of Adcock's "Selected Poems" and "Time Zones". It is intended for use at GCSE, sixth-form and undergraduate level, and for the general poetry reader.
