In this account of her relationship with her increasingly dependent father following her mother's death in 1992, the poet Susan Wicks explores highly emotive territory in language that is spare, and without sentimentality. Flitting in and out of childhood memories, dreams, and the day-to-day practicalities of having an aged parent, she describes a relationship that will be familiar and identifiable to many readers.
