      THE INSTANT SUNDAY TIMES, THE TIMES, SUNDAY POST AND iPAPER BESTSELLER

      And I have done more than just simply get by
      So much more than escape or survive
      Through the galvanisation of love, time and patience
      I''ll take hold of my story and thrive.
      After life that was seldom what life ought to be
      Through laughter and love I''ll be whole
      This story is mine from the cover to spine
      And the narrative I will control


      Whether she''s writing letters to her younger self, advocating for women''s rights or adapting fairy tales to process an abusive relationship, Len''s voice is bold, unashamedly frank and unmistakably hers.

      The poems in this collection, both funny and fiercely feminist, announce a formidable new talent. Moving deftly between English and Scots, poyums is as approachable as it is affecting.
