Book Synopsis
In Late Shift at the Pickle Factory Mary Dickins presents the reader with an intensely crafted patchwork of stories, reminiscences, observations and whimsy. These poems are tender, sad, joyful, surreal and ridiculous and always characterised by Mary's distinctive blend of wordplay, humour, poignancy and politics. Mary believes that there is nothing stranger, more intriguing and revealing than the everyday life, people and places that we take for granted. She invites you to explore and enjoy this book as part of her poetic legacy drawn from an exuberant and challenging life well lived.
