Hurricane Watch: New and Collected Poems brings together Jamaican
Poet Laureate Olive Senior's first four books of poetry alongside a
new collection. Recipient of the Musgrave Gold Medal in 2005 from
the Institute of Jamaica, Senior has long been recognised as a
skilful and evocative storyteller but what this book shows is the
consistency and range of her achievement. Senior's poems are
delicate, formally playful and always finely observed, whether
responding to Jamaican birdlife, the larger natural world or the
traces of a complicated historical inheritance. Often, and always
surprisingly, her poems' brilliant descriptions and vivid, gripping
narratives open out into ecological reflections, politics and
culture in original, surprising and sensuous ways.
