This unique collection of fifty poems and short prose pieces, twenty-five by each of the authors, is bound together in a very unusual way - by genetics.;Sister and brother Jenny and Jonathan share many things, including the desire to write. Their styles and approaches are often different (but aren't any two poets?). What binds and underlies these poems is their shared family experiences. Some are written in free form and others in traditional forms such as the sonnet; some rhyme, and some use other means of enjoying the beauty of language to convey emotion or atmosphere. There is one poem in French, and pieces about many different countries and places.;The deep pull of the sea, a spell in France, a love of nature and adventure, together with enquiring minds through family trips, holidays and debate: these were their inspiration. There are poems on all of these subjects, as well as one composed by each of them on being siblings. Jenny and Jonathan lived as young children in the North East of England. They then went with their parents for several months to the USA and Canada. Later they lived in Marseille and Paris before returning to the UK. Their parents spent some years in Belgium and all members of the family travelled widely in many parts of the world.;Both accomplished in their own right as published authors, they have now worked together to produce an entertaining and varied set of poems ranging from humour to deep grief, from Cambodia to Cornwall. There is often reflection in these poems, particularly in response to events such as lockdown. Overall a far ranging and thought-provoking collection.
Bradley, Jenny: - Jenny is a writer with a successful career in business. She writes in a variety of genres. A published poet and short story writer, she recently won an award for flash fiction. Her radio plays have been broadcast on the BBC. Writing has been published in anthologies, websites and in the Bristol Post where she was columnist for a year. Her literary agent obtained an offer from a publisher for her first novel.;Jenny loves writing and has written creatively for a lifetime, both to reflect on experiences and for the simple joy of it. Travelling alone round the world for seven months in 2007-2008, blogging http: //jennysworldtripno1.blogspot.com/ was a way of recording her experiences, keeping in touch and making sense of what she was experiencing. She now lives on the North Somerset Coast. Jenny reads at events and is a judge for Poetry on the Lake.
Bradley, Jonathan: - Jonathan Bradley has been writing and reading poetry from an early age. This is his third book of poems to be published. The first two were of poems inspired by butterflies: Papiliones (Choir Press, 2017) and A Kaleidoscope of Butterflies (Merlin Unwin, 2020). His poems have been included in several other books, and he has made a number of public readings of his work at literary events. He has also contributed articles to The Countryman, This England, and Atropos, among other magazines and periodicals. He is a Director of The War Poets Association. Jonathan divides his time between Bristol and the Languedoc in southern France, and has travelled widely during a varied professional career. He shares a love of the natural world and the need to care for it with his sister, Jenny.
