Beschreibung
Where else could you expect to encounter a gene therapy doctor keeping clouds of butterfly facts and such strange bedfellows as the God Apollo and Rabbie Burns' mice, T-Rex and a Banana Circus, Emily Dickinson and NASA, two goldfinches as a charm and a shark in a Sheffield swimming pool. Winner of the Disabled Poets Prize 2024, Susie Wilson's debut pamphlet collection Nowhere Near As Safe As A Snake In Bed charts the painful absurdities of living with advanced melanoma and the cutting-edge science used to treat it. Judged 'extraordinary' by Pascale Pettit, this incisively perceptive and darkly humorous series of poems and notes inventively plays with imagery, form and language, while refusing ever to look away from the seriousness of its central theme: the ridiculousness of how life changes on you.
