Clare [has] a massive
body of work that is funny, profound, thought provoking and moving. She is a
very skilled and experienced compere as well as being able to put together a set
which will receive rapt attention from audiences of many different types.
[Malcolm Saunders, Organiser, Wirral Words]
Clare’s
poetry glides effortlessly through the witty and profound. A great live poet.
Welcome to a world where
silence speaks many languages, bones grow in gardens, and the birdsong
is only in your head. A world where all things are made of glass but breakages
need not be paid for, where moments are crystallized: the
lollipop man murdered, the iron statue running for it, and your mum
planning world domination.
