Ifigenija Simonovic is a prolific and well known poet in her native language and country. For more than twenty years she has lived in London, as a potter, fabric designer and foreign correspondent. The leading poet Maura Dooley contributes a robust assessment of her poetry: 'in these poems an acute personal history is told, sometimes savagely, always searingly...[she is] a brave, awkward, raw poet'.
