“This is poetry that communicates with an honesty and intelligence that feels astonishing. It's about what happens when you're 'halved like any leggy assistant about to be sawn' and then leave hospital 'with a whole new person'.” - Maria Takolander, The Saturday Paper“This verse-journal (with substantial footnotes) records and reflects on the author's first four months as a mother. The page-turning result is a whole new way of doing a long poem, which will fascinate and flip your heart over.” - Harry Ricketts
