Where I Come In
This is the first collection of poems by the creator and spoken word artist Lisa Bennett. She transports us through a wide range of emotions and to different places in her life and growth, through parenting, marriage, divorce, and redemption. If these poems do not sing to you, she hasn't found your key yet. Lisa lives in the Santa Cruz Mountains of California with thousands of redwoods and a small menagerie. Advance Praise of Where I Come In Poems in Lisa Bennett's "Where I Come In" are by turns honest, sensual, and funny. The reader is drawn to accompany the poet as she seeks truth and justice in family history and human history, in wild Nature and human nature. With subjects as varied as infertility, a failed marriage, Kundalini, her pet parrot and Jesus Christ, Bennett displays her poetic prowess and asks readers to awaken into their power as she has clearly awakened into her own. -- Magdalena Montagne, Author of Earth, My Witness

Lisa Blower celebrates her characters with stories that they wouldn't want told. She makes the bleak funny, in a voice reminiscent of Alan Bennett, and strikes a new chord in regional and working-class fiction. With a sharp eye and tough warmth, Lisa Blower brings to life the silent histories and harsh realities of those living on the margins. The matriarch dominates these award-winning stories in Lisa Blower's debut collection. From the wise, witty and outspoken Nan of 'Broken Crockery', who has lived and worked in Stoke-on-Trent for all of her 92 years, never owning a passport, to happy hooker Ruthie in 'The Land of Make Believe' or young mum Roxanne in 'The Cherry Tree', she appears in many shapes and forms, and always with a stoicism that is hard to break down. The title is a Potteries saying that means it's looking a bit bleak, a little like rain.
