Poetry. Angela Topping's carefully crafted poetry probes love, death, parenthood and the intricacies of relationships. She exposes human frailty in her unpacking of family history, the suppressed eroticism of forbidden love and the magic of the everyday. Her wit is metaphysical in its playfulness and she slyly makes us laugh at ourselves. She uses familiar figures such as Peter Pan and Frankenstein's monster to comment on marriage and parenthood, using imagery which is often both deeply sensuous and startlingly original. Angela Topping writes in a very sharp, clear voice that never minces words and makes you see the wider significance of a seemingly minor event. This book shows a strong awareness of craft and a dlightful use of words -- City Life.
