Thin Spells is a startling collection, in which the present is powerfully haunted by the ecological past. The poems are shot through with teeth, fur and feathers. The poems consistently blur the unstable line between the animal and human and celebrate environments which are often overlooked: quarries, canal paths and aqueducts; schoolyards and penny arcades – Rachel Bower.
