Chris Kinsey is one of Britain's finest Nature Poets. In 2008 she won the BBC Wildlife Poet-of the-Year competition for a poem about a tree-creeper. Her work with rescued greyhounds has earned her the nick-name of the greyhounds' poet laureate. But as the poems in Swarf reveal, Chris Kinsey is also interested in human nature, especially among those whose lives are easily overlooked and under-valued - many of these poems draw on her experiences working with the elderly, with excluded students and adults with learning disabilities. It is a book about life in a small town, its mad Fridays, slow Sundays and long afternoons in the pub. It is a book of poems about living and learning, about hospitals, park-life, martial arts - and greyhounds.
