Synopsis
There is a fresh note of irony and humour in this collection of Ruth Fainlight poems. They also appear to demonstrate a development of her technical and linguistic skills. The subjects range from contemporary terrorism, and a giant Pacific octopus, to the Sibyls of the classical world.
"synopsis" may belong to another edition of this title.
