Carole Satyamurti's poetry explores love, attachment and the fragility of personal survival, charting the tension between connected and separate lives. With an unflinching eye, she takes on complex and often painful subject-matter - cancer for instance or raising a disabled child. Many of her poems hinge on a turning-point or a place where one life touches another, bearing witness to the way we imagine - or fail to imagine - the otherness of others. This edition of her Selected Poems was originally published by Oxford University Press in 1998 and taken over by Bloodaxe Books when OUP closed its poetry list in 2000, the reissue coinciding with the publication of new Bloodaxe collection, Love and Variations. Both books were later incorporated in a fuller retrospective, Stitching the Dark: New & Selected Poems (2011).
