Ness Owen lives on the island of Ynys Mon where she writes plays, poetry and stories in between lecturing and farming. Her work has appeared in various journals including Poetry Wales, Red Poets, I, S & T, The Fat Damsel, Culture Matters and in anthologies published by Three Drops Press, Here and Now project and Mother’s Milk Books and Arachne Press, who published her bilingual first collection, Mamiaith; and for whom she co-edited best selling bilingual Welsh poetry anthology, A470

There’s something extraordinary about trees; their age, their stillness, their presence. They live amongst us, full of life and mystery, bridging the deep earth below to the swirling sky above and generally we pass by them with barely a thought. But not Ness Owen. In this outstanding collection of poems, she names the trees and gives them the honour and respect that they deserve.
