My Nan Speaks Nanish

';Jane Williams's poems are inventive and the fun is infectious. A bag full of goodies and a delight to the ear.' Harry Laing, author of Shoctopus';In these poems, a whole heap of relatives and animals collide and come together in a series of wonderful moments. We overhear the things that Nan and Pop say, that don't always mean what they sound like that secret, special language it takes an effort to untangle: Nanish and we spend time with Auntie Bern and Uncle D, with their hobbies and chooks. There's a joy in being a kid, in being out in the dirt and the woods. In these poems, nature is ever present and the regular whiff of the absurd, the comic, the nonsense-ish is just enough to set an extra sparkle in the eyes and heart of the reader. Lovely, daft, heartfelt, funny, fresh stuff.' A.F. Harrold, author of The Imaginary
