The Wrong Person to Ask by Marjorie Lotfi
POETRY BOOK SOCIETY SPECIAL COMMENDATION WINTER 2023
Winner of the James Berry Poetry Prize. Marjorie Lotfi's award-winning debut collection is a book of two halves, each a meditation on the idea of home, both the places we start and end up in our lives. Spanning a childhood in Iran dislocated by revolution, through years as a young woman in America, to her current home in Scotland, these poems ask what it means to come from somewhere else, what we carry with us when we leave, and how we land in a new place and finally come to rest.
