Book Synopsis
A collection of poems, which draw inspiration from sources as whimsical as snails and frogs, as poignant as a homeless woman taking shelter inside a post office on a winter's night, and as deeply personal as the poets own diagnosis of cancer at a young age.

Trade Review
"Partridge is a technical wizard for whom thinking and feeling are not separate activities. She is a hawk-like observer of the particular... many times ascending to pitch-perfect verse." - Ken Babstock, Globe and Mail"
