The title poem of this collection is set in Murano, home to the Venetian glass-making industry. The alchemical processes of mirror-making, its ''furnaces and transubstantiations, / amalgams of tin and quicksilver'' become a guiding metaphor for the poet. Cityscapes are haunted by memories both personal and historic. Formally inventive, restless, inquisitive, these poems capture our attention by subverting expectations.
Zoë Skoulding co-edits the literary magazine Skald with Ian Davidson and their collection of collaborative poems, Dark Wires, was published by West House Books in 2007.
