Book Synopsis
Family is the one thing we all know about - whether family gives you strength, or breaks your heart, whether your idea of family stays steadfast through generations, or whether your family is a million miles away from kids or rosy-cheeked grannies. This book helps us think about and celebrate family moments and family members. The contents ranges from Robert Burns to Liz Lochhead, from happy babies to the death of a father. It is the fourth in the series of anthologies which provide words for important occasions ("Handfast", "Handsel" and "Lament", also published by Polygon and the Scottish Poetry Library).

Trade Review
This Edinburgh anthology includes key contemporary and earlier poets such as Edwin Morgan, W S Graham, Liz Lochhead, Robert Crawford, Richard Price and Edwin Muir.
