Dearly

In ?Dearly: Poems? Margaret Atwood explores absence, memory and transformation with her characteristic wit and insight. The poems reflect on bodies and minds in flux, on ageing and renewal, on the interplay between human and animal, myth and daily life. Werewolves, dreams, sirens and objects of our damaged environment appear alongside reflections on time slipping and the gifts of the present. The collection offers both playful and poignant meditations on mortality, the passage of time, and our awkward, brave attempt to stay connected. (Waterstones)
