<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br>The reader might be justified in thinking that the M in the title of Colette Bryce's new poetry collection could stand for Mortality, Mother, Mourning, or the spontaneous and cathartic practice of the writer's "morning pages"--until they reach the book's arresting central sequence. Addressed to "M," a sibling who has suddenly died, this three-part poem depicts the experience of unexpected bereavement, and the altering effect such events have on the living. Bryce harnesses her characteristic insight, forensic eye, and deeply-woven music to deeply moving ends. As the book unfolds, it becomes clear that her other subjects (of family, travel, history and ageing) all orbit the gravitational center of <i>The M Pages</i>. This is a book about what--for reasons of propriety, self-censorship, fear, and the limits of our knowledge--we can and cannot say about one of the most profound events we can face.<p/><br></br><p><b> About the Author </b></p></br></br><b>Colette Bryce</b> is the author of several poetry collections, most recently <i>The Whole & Rain-domed Universe</i>, recipient of a Christopher Ewart-Biggs Award in memory of Seamus Heaney. She was selected as one of Val McDermid's 10 most exciting LGBTQI+ writers in the UK in association with the British Council in 2019.
