Wrong Number - Katrin Talbot - Bog

WRONG NUMBER explores how wrong numbers, telephone and other, can be worlds unto themselves and these poems reflect experiences that can redirect a life or simply add colour to a day. Getting on the wrong bus, prank calls, double-death fossils, the alarm of wrong mother calls from the school, the friend with a number one off from the Chicago FBI tip line-these are all fodder for unexpected journeys. Consequences of our distracted thoughts or our careless fingers' antics can pave or dial the way to a simple much-needed laugh, a bit of a shock, or, sometimes, unexpected joy.
