She Who Sings Is Not Always Happy

Series:

Julia Usman's poetry invites us into her childhood landscape of farm and meadows, schooldays, and travels in France, Brussels, Milan and beyond. It is poetry at ease in all those environments. Her close observations and reflections are delicately woven into 'Finding a voice', 'Still Life' and many more. This is a collection deeply layered with longing and grace for people loved and times gone.
