Jen Webb’s new collection is a series of striking prose poems that explore the ways in which personal crises and memories might be re-examined through the elusive concept of the archive. How, she asks, might we construct a personal archive to ‘make sense of the past in the work of facing and building the future’? Each of these finely wrought poems is a record of life lived through significant moments.

'Webb knows how to bring into her paragraphs of poetry the intimate, almost chaotic fluidity of living through one crisis after another-missing a bus, being knocked from a boat, the unexpected death of a friend-it is all here, archived and uncanny.' KEVIN BROPHY 'Intensely lyrical, often dire, Jen Webb's prose poems are sensual in that word's fullest meaning-of the senses, of the body. The poems become erotic because sensation is where eroticism lives alongside hunger, fury, and all our other urgencies; because "only that makes sense right now." KATHARINE COLES
