Winner of the 2020 Seamus Heaney First Collection Prize. Winner of
the East Anglian Book Award for Poetry 2020. The Guardian's Poetry
Book of the Month August 2019. So Many Rooms, the debut collection
from Geoffrey Dearmer Prize-winning poet Laura Scott, moves with
its own lyric strangeness, opening up different rooms and also
different worlds.
Laura Scott's second collection, The Fourth Sister, is a book of
unusual love poems. It features an assorted cast: lovers and
sisters, but also parents and children, the living and the dead,
birds and trees, painters, playwrights and their characters, a
godfather who married the wrong man and a godmother who was surely
a spy. The book's energy flows out into other lives, discovering
vital connections and the gaps between them. Scott writes as a poet
in Wordsworth's sense: 'an upholder and preserver, carrying
everywhere relationship and love.'
