Inhaltsangabe

Ghost & Other Sonnets will disturb and delight. Working within the conventional form of the sonnet this sequence is on the surface one of Monk's most accessible works but the simplicity is deceptive. Each poem shifts and veers into unexpected complexity. Words shimmy down the page to their unpredictable conclusion leaving the reader delighted, disconcerted and baffled. Monk brings together disparate strands of uncertainty in a fragile world and she does it with her usual tenderness, ferocity and humour.
