Bone Ovation

Bird, beast or man, we each have the same element at our core: bones. While our forms may change, the bones always remain - and in this thrilling debut, the poet celebrates their beauty and structure through folk tales, philosophy, daydreams and night terrors.

Aided by a host of characters including a girl who fell in love with a mountain, a woman who can only ever look at you sideways, and a man made of bees, within this slim volume Caroline Hardaker creates a dozen unforgettable worlds entirely her own.
