A Dress With Deep Pockets

£6.00

Winner of the 2024 International Book & Pamphlet Competition judged by Jane Clarke

A lightness of touch combined with wit and insight distinguishes A Dress with Deep Pockets. The collection addresses themes of loss and change through memories of people and place and above all friendship. Here are poems that celebrate, offer solace and resonate far beyond the page. – Jane Clarke

A Dress with Deep Pockets is scrupulously attentive to matters of love and longing.
Vividly written and tender-hearted, this is a moving collection of poems which foregrounds kindness above everything. Highly recommended. – Vanessa Lampert

I so enjoyed the verve, colour and confidence of these poems. These are accomplished poems of womanhood, motherhood and friendships from a poet who doesn’t forget the reader; hugely enjoyable. – Deborah Alma
