5 star Amazon review for Windfalls: 'These poems dance through this book without putting a foot wrong.'

5.0 out of 5 stars Swimming with swallows!

Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 20 October 2021

An adept at modern poetry and the vagaries of the modern world, Susie Wild's latest collection explores life as a singleton being ghosted by boyfriends and yet haunting them, being vegan and yet having to hilariously put up with the palaver of men cooking meat to eventually finding a kind of happiness and marriage to a musician and key worker. This is bang up to date with poems like 'How To Become A Recluse' and 'How Quickly We Forget How To Live'. There is breath and range in these poems from love in a horrific London flat, to an amazing trampoline poem, from boxing lessons to the joy of swimming with swallows. These poems dance through this book without putting a foot wrong.
