Chaloner's first full-length collection since 1989's Trans, this is an important collection by a significant figure from the (inaccurately-named) Cambridge School, associated in earlier years with the Grosseteste Review and the Ferry Press.

"...each line is taut and each, as is the case with all good poetry, resonates like a plucked violin string. And though many of these verses address the failure of communication, they each managed to communicate effectively in their own right. Certainly for me they combine to form a collection worth having."

(New Hope International Review)
