Heavy Petting Zoo - Clare Pollard - Bog

'This is such a striking first book that at any age it would be remarkable - from a teenage writer it leaves you excited that there may be so much more to come' - TIME OUT 'Pollard writes entirely and authentically out of the excited anxieties of female adolescence: its quixotic hopes, its merciless bitchiness and its maiming disappointments...The vioelnt colours, the abrupt swerves of thought and the wilfully obscuring bruising of Pollard's poems distinguish them from the usual twenty-something constructions' - THE TIMES
