The Day of the Flying Ants

The Day of the Flying Ants. is about home and leaving home. Much of this entertaining pamphlet focuses on finding, losing, and loving a sense of place. Ants fly when they're compelled to leave home, when they've grown up, when there's no place in the nest anymore. Whether in Derbyshire or Wales, these well-observed poems find their own place in an odd but familiar world.
