The Stone Age
I recently received this quarter’s Poetry Book Society choice, The Stone Age by Jen Hadfield.
I haven’t read it all yet, but I am really enjoying it.
The poetry looks on the page and reads in the voice like the ragged, rugged landscape of her home in Shetland. She achieves this through surprising images and unusual points of view, among other skilful applications of craft. I think this is going to become one of my favourite reads.
