MERMAIDS AND OTHER DEVICES by Nell Farrell
£5.00
‘Nell Farrell is a mermaid whisperer. This collection is witty and unsettling, uplifting and weird in equal measure. These fishy visitors give cover to issues of dysmorphia, sexuality and identity without ever precluding fun.’ (Jo Bell)
Nell Farrell shares her birthplace with DH Lawrence and was once told off by Philip Larkin. She lives in Sheffield where she has just retired from her social work-shaped job but continues to work as a creative writing tutor.
In her poetry she likes to explore the places between what’s seen as ‘normal’ and acceptable and what’s regarded as odd or ‘mad’.
