This is the first collection of Hanne Bramness' work to be published in English for many years, and it surveys an increasingly impressive body of work, which won her the prestigious Scandinavian Dobloug Prize in 2006, awarded by the Swedish Academy. Author of eight volumes of poetry and a number of translations from English, Hanne Bramness is one of the leading poets of her generation in Norway.
