Writer / performer Rosie Garland is a long-standing friend of the shop, and we’re always delighted to receive her latest book.

Rosie’s new volume of poetry for Nine Arches Press, What Girls Do in the Dark, is a luscious, wide-ranging collection that demonstrates her spellbinding gift with words, whether considering her birth parents, a bramble bush full of berries or the Large Hadron Collider.

We now have copies in stock, complete with signed, numbered bookplates.
