From The Back Cover;

Alicia Stubbersfield is at the height of her powers.

These sparkling poems ring true in a shrewd, honest, lyrical voice unfurling the colours of love.         Robert Hamberger

 

It is rare to find a poet like Alicia Stubbersfield for whom real life, its untidy pains and delights and uncertainties are genuine, rich, exquisite material for poetry.         Anne Cluysenaar

Unsuitable Shoes  

by Alicia Stubbersfield

The Collective Press  isbn 1-8994-4965 5     "With her exuberant, delicious, uncomfortable inventiveness, Alicia Stubbersfield creates a world in which Marc Chagall, Angela Carter and Stanley Spencer might meet.  Her world is witty, moving, affectionate and gaudy yet it is a place where the brilliance of the colours is haunted by what lies in the shadows.  intensely vivid and colorful, these narratives are stuffed with the tacky tinsel of a backstage world but, most often, it is the backstage of our dreams."                Maura Dooley
