“No surprise in the writer, no surprise in the reader.” – Robert Frost

Poems may be accurate and deeply felt, but unless there is an element of surprise, they won’t lift off the page and live. Through exercises and experiments, you’ll catch yourselves by surprise and reveal truths you didn’t know you knew. Jean Sprackland’s own work is grounded in ordinary emotions and settings, shot through with an extraordinary imagination.
