Rebecca Perry Reihenfolge der Bücher

I thought I would never see him again. But here he is, standing there, not a care in the world. No thought to the pain he caused me a year ago. Ruby thought she could move on from her break-up with best friend Danny until he shows up at her university campus with a quick smile, sexy abs and eyes that you could easily drown in. Ruby resolves to stay away, not entangling her heart again. But her hormones have other ideas, leading to a steamy night with Danny before she can think better of it. When the two lovers reconnect, how long will it last before the issues that broke them up the first time, start rearing their ugly head?

When Rebecca Perry was growing up, she competed nationally and internationally as a trampolinist. 'On Trampolining' deftly blends memoir and lyrical nonfiction to explore a time she 'chose air over earth'. Perry's explorations on pain, flight and grief in relation to competitive sport, memory and the body are sensuous, funny, traumatic and tender.

A collection of three distinct parts, the poems in Rebecca Perry's second collection Stone Fruit nonetheless speak across their many common preoccupations: memory, grief, the fallibility of the physical form, our connection to and place in the world, natural and otherwise.

These are poems of tidal ebb and advance, of the drift of sand blown along the beach and into caves, where secret things click and scuttle. Things are not always what they seem. This is an unsettling anxious landscape and it is mapped onto the body in uncertain ways.

Debut collection by one of Britain's most original young poets. Her chapbook little armoured (Seren) was a Poetry Book Society Pamphlet Choice.
