New Selected Poems, 1984-2004

This volume draws together a body of work spanning the last twenty years. It includes poems from six major collections, from Standing Female Nude (1985) to Feminine Gospels (2002), and a handful of ‘other poems’, collected here for the first time. It shows a writer who hit the ground running, emerging into the world a fully formed and utterly distinctive voice, and who, twenty years later, can be counted among the foremost of the poets of any generation.
