From the fragile landscapes of her Fens-border childhood to the history-infused beauty of Oxford’s Merton College, Lynne Wycherley’s new collection offers glimpses of transcendence to balance our fast-paced lives. Probing time and timelessness, her quest for healing beauty, whether through early memories or flora, fauna, libraries, and sky, shimmers with the lyric qualities that have long distinguished her work.
From reviews of her collections:
“Many of these poems are so beautiful that they almost hurt – not only because of the subject matter but because of the exquisite language” – London Grip
“A compelling contribution to eco-poetry” – Resurgence
“A unique lyric sensibility…the poems alight on the page winged and true. Not since the work of Frances Horovitz has one heard such a voice” – Artemis
“Let us hope more and more people…read the poems for they are surely truths wrapped up in spare, ethereal language” – Self & Society
“All are gifted with a musical numinous quality…many of these poems deserve to be anthologised forever” – Agenda
