Jo’s first book, Len & other poems was inspired by kinetic artist Len Lye. Reviewers said her touch was sure, the content filled with subtle energy … sophisticated, visual and clever. This new collection is all those things and more, as she moves through her poems with the assurance and sophistication of a dancer.
Mary McCCallum was particularly taken by the work, admiring Jo's ability to Jo write poems "that do indeed 'dance' - in their language, their musicality, the way they move
with words". You can read her review here.
“The world of poems is very much a spoken one” Sam Hunt but it seems music is not so far away either. This lovely book is a fantastic glimpse of a poet's life and works.
