Publisher's Synopsis

Eloise Hendy's debut is a candid collection of poems that are sardonic, arresting and fiercely feminist. the blue room is dotted with sharp imagery-the heart rate of smashed glass, a dentist with stiff fingers, regurgitating confetti. Hendy's brilliant voice seems to relish the role of both salvager and confidante of memory.

'Her bright and broad imaginings disrupt verse's dreaminess, slapping a splash your way to bring you back into the glistering present.' - Alice Hill-Woods, SPAM
