Bøger af Lorna Thorpe

This second collection deals with Lorna Thorpe's near brush with death following a cardiac arrest, and the psychic death that preceded it. There are also poems about people who died before their time, but Thorpe is still here and concludes with poems celebrating the sensual pleasures and chaos of love and living in a defiant and vulnerable voice.

The 'ghost' of the title is a 'bad girl' and these poems chart her life, birth and death through dance halls, betting shops, bed-sits, broken love affairs and the streets of Brighton, along with other ghosts from her past.
