Praise for Windfalls:

‘Powerful, beautifully crafted poems…’  – Jonathan Edwards

‘Wild comes across as the poetic equivalent of Jean Rhys: wry, arch, a little world-weary but, unlike Rhys, with a sparkling glint of humour… A very affecting collection of poems indeed.’ –  Buzz Magazine

‘deft, witty, and heartwarming’ – Poetry Wales

‘This latest collection by Susie Wild is substantial, touching, entertaining and very fresh; […] love and life fall and decay but also one finds strange, unexpected gifts.’ – Gwales

‘Wild is an excellent poet … For well-crafted and enjoyable poetry, you could not do much better.’ – the welsh agenda
