'Seams of Repair is a captivating collection of lineated poetry and prose poetry that write into ‘the lacuna that grief brings’ (‘Residue’). Dedicated to Stephanie Green’s grandmother, ‘who understood why words matter’, Seams of Repair provides a lyrical lexicon of intimacies, giving priority to the demotic and quotidian in impressive moments of sehnsucht. The collection’s focus on the interplay and unfolding of language demonstrates Green’s passion for quiet nuance and striking visual imagery in stark expressions of desire and absence.
