Books: Fiesta

by Pam Kelly

Poems written in Andalucia in April and May 2007. Both mood and content vary from wonder at the sight of an immense rock which is the sole freight of a large lorry to a nostalgic look back to the 60’s at a country market, and from the joys of love and sex to the “almostecstasy” of being solitary.

“‘Fiesta’ is a sun-stroked, erotically-charged gathering of finely shaped poems. In its depiction of people and place, Andalucia comes alive on the page”

Wes Magee

“Following the success of her first book, “On the Edge” last year, Pam published “Fiesta”, a short selection of 10 poems written in Andalucia in April and May this year.

They feature her hallmark humour, acute observation (of both human nature and the natural world) and subtle eroticism.

Whether she is trying to learn flamenco (Real Women) or thrilling to a new relationship (Orange Juice) Pam writes with unselfconscious honesty – and a wonderful use of language and rhythms.”
