Charlotte Ansell's territory, from her debut in 2002, has been the heart. In Amittere, the heart is stripped to its connections - parent to child in poems such as Navigation and Poiesis; between friends and siblings in Dandelions and Twins; and to place. Beyond that she excavates how the body that holds a heart, perceived through lenses of race, gender, wealth or power, affects the troubles the heart carries. Ansell's years working as a child and adolescent psychotherapist come to the fore in this latest book, the dilemmas of the young people who have passed through the doors of her service reflecting the contemporary world and its many fascinating fusions and fractures. Amittere is the human story delivered in a spirit of tenderness, curiosity and occasional despair, but always underpinned by an unrelenting thread of hope.

Reviews for Amittere

""Charlotte Ansell writes with remarkable clarity about change and catastrophe. Using poetry as a cipher for contemplation, resilience, and reckoning, she unpacks the upheavals that echo from one's own life to the wider world."" - Roger Robinson ""Charlotte captures the bittersweetness of love, life and everything in between"" - Heather Taylor ""Frank, tender poems, that worry at the world with skew and invention"" - Jack Underwood ""[Ansell's] generosity of heart combines with expert technique and powerful storytelling to make sure the impetus never lapses."" - Rosie Johnston, London Grip
