And Everything Will Be Glad to See You: Poems by Women

£20.00

Highly Acclaimed
Made To Treasure

This exceptional anthology brings together poems by women and girls—from Christina Rossetti and Maya Angelou to Amanda Gorman and young poets writing today. Ella Risbridger's selection moves between moods and moments without rigid sections, letting poems flow naturally from celebration to reflection, defiance to tenderness.

Anna Shepeta's full-colour illustrations respond to each poem's essence. The physical book itself feels significant—cloth binding, textured jacket, ribbon marker, head and tail bands—meant to be kept and returned to.
