Description: "When our pens fail take me with you to the canal, I will tell you where I hid the tails a fin secret" In these poems, Anna Percy leads the reader through urban landscapes, states of mind, countryside and myth to uncover a truth or two. If you get lost in their magic, just follow the stag until you find your way out again... "Percy's poems walk a tightrope between the natural and urban worlds. There is constant sense of being on the edge of some kind of precipice. Percy puts words together in glorious and adventurous ways, her poems celebrate womanhood and the self, and are imbued with an optimism that we can survive whatever life throws at us - but they also have that "something other" that lifts each poem into another more exciting realm." - Julia Webb
