Life lived on shifting ground, in the extraordinary moments when something cracks and something new happens is the underlying thread that unites the stories and poems in The Ground Beneath Her Feet.
From Alice Keys's award-winning title story, in which the cracks in the wall become the metaphor for both breaking and healing, to the beautifully crafted poems of Sue Wood, in which a comb burning foreshadows death with surprising grace; from Harrison Solow’s hypnotic, fable-like prose to Clare Jay’s precise, assured poetry, the writing in this anthology engages and surprises, discomforts and delights.
