Fiona Sampson’s latest collection transforms the sensory world into an astonishingly new and vivid poetry. Here, dream and myth, creatures real and imagined, and the sights and sounds of ‘distance and of home’ all coalesce in a sustained meditation on time and belonging.

Combining formal sophistication with metaphysical exploration, this is an incandescent work of renewal, beauty and risk.

You go to Fiona Sampson for intensity, and The Catch doesn’t disappoint.
