book of days

‘Simplicity’s deceptive.  Here is a gathering of verses that carry, alone and together, a whole year’s work – and not only that but many an earlier year of writing-work as well – so lightly.  Here is the gathered grace and strength of the spider’s web that took all night to spin.’

Gillian Allnutt

‘Linda France opens herself to the act of finding one image each day; within that day, recording loss and delight, allowing herself the lulls that are often enough.  The form and its practice Linda has offered are a step into the poetics of the day.  Take up this book and in doing so you too can take up the form.’
