Chieko Persimmons successfully utilises flexible genre of the prose poem, making out of ordinary experiences a rich and evocative meditation, with consistent warmth and humour. This is a piquant, inventive collection (Roger Cardinal, art critic, emeritus professor, University of Kent). These pieces reach for intangible (Patricia Debney, poet, Canterbury laureate, 200708). One is reminded all at once of Zen Koans, Piet Hein, John Clare, and even Beckett (Todd McEwen, author of four novels, a former editor of Granta magazine).
