Owl Unbound examines nature and humanity in a wide range of settings; from a stag beetle on a suburban fence to fossils on a Somerset beach, from a Cotswold roofer “tiptoeing the thin laths” to a bag lady in Covent Garden “dancing at the amplifier's right hand”.

​

Whilst there is tender joy and love in the collection, there is also anger and loss.

"Robert Frost described poetry as ‘a way of taking life by the throat’, and the fearless, vivid and immensely lyrical poems in Owl Unbound do just that. A masterful collection of poems by an extraordinary poet."

Anna Saunders

"There are so lines here that stick with me and continue to unfold. Language that is fresh and unexpected, that gives us that inner nod of recognition."
