Description

Book Synopsis
First Rain in Paradise is a book about falling. Gwyneth Lewis's highly inventive poems trace an interior landscape carved from the trauma of childhood emotional abuse through subsequent chronic ill health and towards a hard-won resurrection. This work refuses to keep pain a secret. Shame is a lurking presence, but suffering doesn't preclude humour.
