THE INSTANT SUNDAY TIMES, THE TIMES, SUNDAY POST AND iPAPER BESTSELLER
WINNER OF 2024 SCOTS BOOK OF THE YEAR
SHORTLISTED FOR THE BOOKS ARE MY BAG READER AWARD 2024
And I have done more than just simply get by
So much more than escape or survive
Through the galvanisation of love, time and patience
I'll take hold of my story and thrive.
After life that was seldom what life ought to be
Through laughter and love I'll be whole
This story is mine from the cover to spine
And the narrative I will control
Whether she's writing letters to her younger self, advocating for women's rights or adapting fairy tales to process an abusive relationship, Len's voice is bold, unashamedly frank and unmistakably hers.
The poems in this collection, both funny and fiercely feminist, announce a formidable new talent. Moving deftly between English and Scots, poyums is as approachable as it is affecting.
"Pennie already - in this first collection - shows an impressive command of poetic technique [ . . . ] this intense and remarkable collection now marks her out as a poetic voice to be reckoned with - strong, tested, skilful, driven, and facing firmly towards the future" - * Scotsman *
"A challenging funny naughty angry and exultant celebration of the Scottish language and of womanhood, I doubt it will find a match this year" - * Daily Mail *
