Mel Pryor's first collection deals with the small and the ordinary - a rat, a domestic cat, slugs, a fly at the window, a mosquito, and in sharply concise poems transforms them into something marvellous and/or terrifying. Her often tender and sometimes ironic depictions of family, loss and love urge us to cherish 'each blithe inhalation and exhalation.'
