The insidious peril that haunts these pages appears in various guises against a backdrop of France, Germany, Greece, the USA and the UK. Stalker is a collection of prose poems in which the narrator attempts to make sense of everyday experience, turning to Rilke, Van Gogh, Steinbeck and others in her quest for understanding. "Here is a mind engaged yet disengaged, exploring 'that line between the visible and the invisible', steeped in art and literature, empathetic to those characters on the edge-the unsettled soul, both fictional ('Who is the cloaked woman pacing the platform near the engine, trembling and distraught?') and real (the clochard 'like a winter lizard clinging to the grille over the metro vent'). Here is a fraught and fragile sensibility heightened by fear; a self explored-and exposed-through a disjunctured narrative, language and content perfectly suited to the twists and turns of the prose poem. Here is a self in constant transit, the evocation of place as intense and striking as the mind's internal machinations." -Linda Black
