What the critics say about Gerda Meyer…
'Fans of Gerda Mayer will be delighted with her new collection. Short, spare, deceptively simple…her range is wide. The poems have a vivid imagistic clarity…deliciously wicked…bittersweet sadness…' - Katie Campbell CITY LIMITS
'One of the most tactful namers of the Holocaust but her poems of everyday disenchantment are deepened by a powerful bitterness. She is funny but never a stand-up comedian. Like Stevie Smith she writes children's rhymes for grown-ups.' - Peter Porter THE OBSERVER
'Marvellous poetry for everyone…she offers fragments of experience; lays small insights at the reader's feet, turns them inside out, and leaves her readers delighted and surprised.' - Jan Thompson AMBIT
