Four sisters of a certain age, and an alphabet . . . Different lives, different beliefs, different locations: they decide, as a joke, to keep in touch in verse. The joke becomes a project. Taking each letter in turn, from A to Z, they choose a subject and each write a poem, or sometimes two. They start at Age and journey all the way to the Zodiac. This diverse collection of witty, thought-provoking, entertaining and sometimes ridiculous poems is the result. The ridiculous ones are deliberate, of course. Honestly.
