Description - The Other Country by Carol Ann Duffy, DBE

An early collection from the Poet Laureate, published for the first time by Picador As with her later collections, The Other Country takes its readers on a journey that is both familiar yet surreal. Escorting us to the other country - that is, those places that we otherwise visit only in our memories or our minds - it blurs the lines between fantasy and reality, and as such, can be both playful and provocative. It is also, however, deeply intelligent, honest and thoughtful, with a deftness of tone and touch, and an emotional yet unsentimental openess that makes this one of Carol Ann Duffy's most vivid and remarkable collections to date.
