Description

Spangles and Space Dust. Overboiled cabbage. Clotted cream. Placki ziemniaczane. Can You See Where I’m Coming From? examines the ingredients that have made Melanie Branton who she is, from a 1970s working-class childhood to a Dickensian boarding school, from bogus Cornishness to a stint teaching in Poland.

Publisher Review

“A fantastic poet with a great mix of dry humour and real-life heart and emotion” Harry Baker; “Melanie Branton is an unexpected poetry slap. The kind that makes your face tingle and your eyebrows sky rocket. She is funny, clever, ironic, dry, gripping, needed and you won’t see her coming until she is standing in your face” Liv Torc
