A.F. Harrold's collection is a sequence detailing the illness and death of his mother, but its tone is anything but elegiac. Addressed to the patient, both present and absent, the poems are frank, unflinching and honest. There is love here, but also frustration, bewilderment, confusion and grief. Together the poems explore the spaces where despair, boredom and exhaustion meet, and at their heart describe the difficulty of dying.
Les mer
The book is addressed to the poet's mother, and follows her from illness to death and beyond. Without sentiment, or with little sentiment, or with a wary sentiment the poet tiptoes through the middle of difficult questions, faces his own weakness and in the end puts it all to one side, finally facing the facts of life and death as friends.

“With this new collection, in which he mourns the death of his mother, Harrold is building up an impressive body of poetry which is distinguished by its intellectual and thematic unity… As in previous collections, Harrold has a wonderful eye for detail and an enviable ability to capture the most mundane reality.” David Cooke The London Grip
