Copeland’s Daughter

£5.00

‘Copeland’s Daughter’ was a winner in the 2015/16 Poetry Business Book and Pamphlet Competition, Judged by Billy Collins, who said:

‘This collection deserves a high place in the tradition of the poet as naturalist. Precise description rendered in physical language lifts these poems off the page and into the sensory ken of the reader. One poem, “The First Lighthouse” should be read in every classroom.’
