These poems are staggeringly tender. They are open, vulnerable and emotionally raw - and with this, they are poetically precise, exactly crafted gems. These are poems that want to give to the reader - my advice is to open this book and let them." - Niall Campbell<br><br>"There are poems in this collection that knocked me clean to the ground, as others offered me a warm hand up and others still, which stroked my backbone as I sobbed. The subject is crucial, but it's the beauty of the poems which hold it all together. 'By law she carries you' is a line that I will never get out of my skin." - Hollie McNish<br><p/><br></br><p><b> About the Author </b></p></br></br>Aoife Lyall is an Irish poet living in the Scottish Highlands.
