This debut collection by prizewinning Merseyside poet, Clare Kirwan, includes her characteristic mix of quirky, witty and reflective poems. Always both accessible and thought-provoking, most of these poems have been published in a wide range of journals and anthologies (including Iota; The Found Poetry Review; Binnacle; Prole; Orbis; MsLexia and Sculpted: Poetry of the Northwest) or been placed in various national poetry competitions.
The Silence Museum's themes are the unspoken aspects of our lives - difficult relationships, fragile aspirations and the dark fear that your mother may be a Bond villain.
...funny, abrasive, quirky, profound, a fine poet ... not to be missed.’
Paul Blackburn, Write Out Loud
‘...excellent, clear and polished, with just the right mix of serious poems and the bizarre.’
Gill McEvoy
