Poetry Pamphlet: Pegging Out by Lauren Colley

Pegging Out - Lauren Colley

We are delighted to hear that PhD student Lauren Colley's poetry pamphlet, Pegging Out, is out now, published by Indigo Dreams. It is the joint winner of the Indigo-First Pamphlet Prize 2020.

Exploring themes of home and connection, Colley's poems are often snapshot images – depictions of domestic life observed from windows or heard through a shared bathroom wall. Others look beyond this, directing our line of sight far out across the rooftops ‘until the town edge tatters’ and the natural world continues regardless, to ‘restitch’. This touching and humourous collection is not to be missed.

You can purchase Pegging Out here.
