Whose hand would you like to hold...

Meer over het boek

Patricia McCarthy is a poet working on an epic scale, an ambition Agenda has always celebrated. All her recent volumes have a story to tell, something the poet needs to say, and we need to hear. Whose Hand Would You Like to Hold speaks to the truth of the plague now threatening our world, not in vacuous political rhetoric, but in the people and landscapes, images and metaphors which bring the threat to life. The truth is in the poetry, some of the finest this fine poet has written.William Bedford
