Description

Helen Dunmore's poetry spans four decades, and this collection brings together all her published poems from 1975 to 2017. The result is a retrospective that showcases her unique storytelling style, exploring themes of love, loss, and the natural world.

From her early work to her final collection, Inside the Wave, which won the Costa Book of the Year award in 2018, Dunmore's poetry is marked by its luminosity and depth. This comprehensive collection offers a chance to experience her full range, from the darker explorations of her later work to the more hopeful and nature-inspired poems of her earlier years.

With Counting Backwards, readers can gain a deeper understanding of this remarkable poet's oeuvre, and discover why she remains one of the most celebrated voices in contemporary poetry.
