Jeni Couzyn's early collections Flying, Monkeys' Wedding and Christmas in Africa established her as a poet of great originality. Poems set in her native Africa or in the jungle of modern sexual relationships were widely praised as 'powerful', 'disturbing', 'authentic' and 'relevant'. Jeni Couzyn is now a major voice in modern poetry. The new poems included in Life by Drowning are her most imaginative and spiritually profound.
