Kingfisher Days
£5.00 ‘Much poetry is a halfway stage between prose and music and that is an apt description of Mary Sheepshanks’ poems. As in her novels, there is also story-telling, characterisation and a wicked sense of humour…Mary Sheepshanks is original in her thinking and the way she expresses her thoughts…These are poems that should be read again and again’ |

Thinning Grapes
£6.50 ‘A talented poet…her work in this collection is always tuneful, imaginative and accessible … an attractive collection’ ‘Mary Sheepshanks uses a number of voices throughout this collection, each discernibly her own, so that we feel that we know her: warm, humorous, with a faith that is not afraid to ask questions, a woman with a relish for living, who has had the habit of happiness but has learnt to acknowledge grief’ |
