Über diesen Titel

Críticas:

An accomplished painter, she brings to her poetry the same landscape of contrasts, in her vivid descriptions of light and dark, struggle and release, the cleansing properties of fire. She is a courageous poet with a rich palette. -- Maura Dooley & Jamie McKendrick * PBS Bulletin *

Reseña del editor:

Frieda Hughes's Waxworks are figures from mythology and fable, the Bible and the annals of crime. But they are her own reinventions, sharply contemporary stories of anger and greed, love and sorrow, betrayal and jealousy. Her waxworks are new characters reborn of their old selves. She does not judge her recreations but lets them speak for themselves, or shows them haunted in the modern world by their old lives, obsessed by old lies and ruling passions. Waxworks is Frieda Hughes's third collection, following Wooroloo (1999) and Stonepicker (2001). Now out of print in this edition, all the poems are included in Out of the Ashes (Bloodaxe Books, 2018).
