Pauline Stainer is a poet 'working at the margins of the sacred', conveying sensations 'with an economy of means that is breathtaking...her poems are not merely artifacts, they have an organic life of their own' (John Burnside). Her new collection Crossing the Snowline charts her return to life after numbing grief. These luminous poems are a testament of recovery, renewal and redemption.
