Sunday at the Skin Launderette


Book Description

"Quietly persuasive and formally adept, the poems in Kathryn Simmonds' first collection engage with both the quotidian and the transcendental. Often in urban or suburban settings, her protagonists struggle with mundane tasks such as cooking or commuting or office work - all the obstacles of modernity - and then, by some shift of attention, or by some keen narrowing of focus, they chance upon the surreal or the spiritual.This is a poetry of subtle contexts and allusions, as much concerned with the vulnerability of the body as for the fate of the soul and the idea of 'keeping faith' in God and life." --Book Jacket.




Seed Money


Book Description

Some people have all the luck alright, but so far, Seren's has all been bad. Seren Colburn's had nothing but bad luck her entire life, so she's not surprised when Dave, a possible buyer for her family mansion, mistakes her for a vagrant squatting in the unfurnished home. If she wasn't about to lose her movie-star grandmother's house to the bank, she wouldn't even be selling it. But after he realizes Seren's the owner, Dave has an idea. He suggests they work together to turn the mansion into an inn, capitalizing on her grandmother's graceful and timeless image. Seren really doesn't want to, but she's out of options. Dave quickly realizes he wants her as more than just a business partner, but can he convince Seren that her luck's about to change. . .if only she'll take a chance on him? Publisher's Weekly said that Seed Money's plot is, "heartwarming and humorous, though protagonist Seren's personal life is filled with tragedy." They also said that, "the prose is engaging and easy to read. [Seed Money] is [a] familiar, charming, and comfortable read."




Kink and Particle


Book Description

Offering multiple perspectives from a young woman on the brink of her 30th birthday, this collection looks back to childhood experiences, to the more indulgent pleasures of the 20s, and then onwards towards a mysterious but much-anticipated future. With a seemingly casual, almost throwaway vernacular that has nevertheless been formulated with great care, the experience is one of reading an intimate letter from a friend, offering an immediate and diary-like quality of authenticity.
