Sobre IBD

In A Lick of Loose Threads Jenna Plewes gives us a window into the lives of people who are making the best of things in difficult times. Poems celebrate the kindness of strangers, resilience and courage found in unlikely places; fragments of ordinary lives that are extraordinary and special. These are warm and lyrical poems shot through with the beauty of the natural world.’Attentive and observant, these sensitive poems are a mending of life’s everyday, a generous and deeply empathic pamphlet collection.’- Jean Atkin Poet in Education & Community Projects’These loose threads are memorable character sketches of the small and sometimes forgotten, vividly realised through Jenna Plewes’ poetic attention. This is a wistful and thoughtful poetry, attuned to 'Torn fabric, / mended [and] re-patterned' and to 'the stumbling will to live'’- Rosie Miles
