This first UK publication for Slovakia's leading woman poet concentrates on poetry written in the 1990s-perhaps Haugova's most fruitful period. Feminism and ancient myth contribute to the fabric of her work, as do the Central European traditions of surrealism and hermeticism. Haugova's is a poetry which continually reaches beyond itself, taking us into what might be unseen at the start of a poem but which is palpably evident once the poem has penetrated the pores of our skin.
