Description

Vicki Feaver's powerful poetry collection is inspired by William Blake's iconic illustration of a child crying 'I want! I want!' as they stand on a ladder to the moon. This title poem represents her own childhood ambition, but also reflects her later struggles with identity and purpose. Feaver's poems reveal a complex and deeply personal journey, from the painful insecurity of childhood to the triumph of a poet's spirit in old age. With unflinching honesty, she explores themes of family, memory, and the search for meaning, creating a vivid testament to the human experience. This is poetry that speaks to the universal struggle to find one's voice and make sense of life, and it does so with urgency, accessibility, and deep emotional resonance.
