Beautiful and moving poems by a prizewinning New Zealand poet. Leggott writes with passion, tenderness and courage about her deep sorrow at losing her sight. The sharpness of images so characteristic of this poet and her wonderful ear for the musical sounds and rhythms and pauses of language reach a new poignancy, a tragic tension, in these poems.
