River Talk is Kerry’s second pamphlet published by Hedgehog Press 2024. It won the Wordsworth Prize for Literature and Poetry in the Lakeland Book of the Year Awards 2025.
Wendy Pratt writes:
'Kerry Darbishire has conjured a river god in this collection. The poems are full to the brim with stunning imagery and they move around the reader like a river around a stone. We are jostled and carried and sink beneath and swim with poems…The heart of this collection is in the intimate knowledge of landscape and the waterways running through it. This coupled with mesmeric writing makes this a collection of power and of purpose. One to revisit.’
P&P is included in price.
