Site-Specific Poems

Site-Specific Poems is Lola Tostevin’s ninth book. Accomplished, lyrical, incisive, beautiful, it can be read as a series of linked poems, as a book of longer poems, or as one extended poem that questions and, in inspirited divination, interrogates poetry’s "site": memory, paper, ink, geographical place, language, nostalgia, the body of the writer. Site-Specific Poems is redolent and radiant with the magical light of place, and how place is inside, and shines through, writing.
