Therese Lloyd

This month in our literary slot we're focusing on poets with interesting new volumes of poetry. The Facts is the second book of verse by Therese Lloyd, following 2013's Other Animals, published by Victoria University Press.

In her new  book Therese deals in art, poetry and honesty - gently opening out the more awkward and less said territories within relationships. As the book cover says: "the end of a marriage, a toxic love affair, age and aging, and the deeper question of spiritual meanings". Mark Amery spoke to Therese.
