Let Out the Djinn
Angebote / Angebote:
There is a double meaning in the title to this debut collection from Edinburgh based poet, Jane Aldous - Jinn was her family nickname, and writing poetry feels like letting out her wild, mischievous spirit. Many of her poems are written out of love for her adopted country, Scotland, particularly the North West Highlands, but the overriding theme is empathy. A trained counsellor for twenty years, for her, poetry is all about listening, and she invites the reader to listen to the imagined worlds of winged bulls, hunter-gatherers, star-gazers, mythical beings, wild creatures, the living and the dead, and the real world of a gay woman growing up in the 70s, and all the fragility, ridiculousness, horror and wonder in life's odyssey.
