Prunings

by Helen Moffett

Where do unfinished poems go – the early buds, the offcuts, all of the blooms that can’t be bunched together? In this beguiling bouquet of travel poetry, diary fragments, letters, works-in-progress and retrospection, Helen Moffett offers us a rare look into the workings, misfirings and triumphs of a literary mind. A collection of tentative moments and emotions, rendered in fleeting and experimental forms.
