Description
Three Spiders Fucking is a heartbroken and mournful suite of poems that grapple with loss. Robin Purves' poetry draws on the influence of two notable UK voices, J. H. Prynne and Denise Riley.
The pamphlet's sections unfold from the discovery of a man hanging in a clearing, to the aftermath that follows. Purves' language is infused with the natural world, fractured and thoughtful, as he explores deeper questions beneath the surface.
