Fear doesn't keep you safe. Fear keeps you.
Gillian Roach's debut poetry collection is firmly rooted in a middle New Zealand, suburban, domestic landscape. Roach is fascinated by the conversations at the school gate or in the hairdresser’s chair, and the strong currents of emotion running deep beneath. These clear-eyed, approachable poems deal in intimate revelations, where stories and black humour traverse the fears that keep lives small and lonely. Secrets are hinted at, twinned with an awakening desire for agency. Each poem builds on the last, revealing a slow journey to self-acceptance, grounded by small acts of attention and care.
