Tamar Yoseloff's third collection combines poignant, sensual and evocative poems with the voyeuristic intensity of an internal emigre. Whether she is observing coastal resorts out of season, lovers in a restaurant or disparate train journeys, she captures the bittersweet isolation of the lyric moment. Her characteristically painterly eye for colour, tone and form is balanced with erotic encounters as well as powerful narratives exploring loss, threat and betrayal.
