As the Verb Tenses is the work of a reflective and sensitive poetic
talent: one run with gleaming wires of joy. In poems that gather
together the vivid details of childhood memory, the surreal
juxtapositions of life in the contemporary West, the wry
observations of a temporary expatriate, the deeply lodged pain of
historical and personal loss, Lynley Edmeades speaks to us in
delicately spun lines that press out ironies, dissonances and
profound formative experience. From playful, rhythmical poems about
the art of dinner conversation, to warm glimpses of intimacy, she
lays poetry’s table with the knife of light satire, the bright
salt of wit, the heady wine of love, the bread of knowledge. This
quietly poised, confident first collection has a musical, emotional
and thematic range of a substantial new talent.
