Will you walk a little faster? (ePub)

Penelope Shuttle has lived in Cornwall since 1970, and the county's mercurial weather and rich history are continuing sources of inspiration. So too is the personal and artistic union Penelope shared with her husband, the poet Peter Redgrove, until his untimely death in 2003. Her first collection of poems, The Orchard Upstairs (1981) was followed by six other books from Oxford University Press, The Child-Stealer (1983), The Lion from Rio (1986), Adventures with My Horse (1988), Taxing the Rain (1994), Building a City for Jamie (1996) and Selected Poems 1980-1996 (1998), and then A Leaf Out of His Book (1999) from Oxford Poets/Carcanet. She has since published four books with Bloodaxe, including Redgrove's Wife (2006), shortlisted for the Forward Prize and T.S. Eliot Prizes, and Sandgrain and Hourglass (2010), a Poetry Book Society Recommendation. Her retrospective, Unsent: New & Selected Poems 1980-2012 (Bloodaxe Books, 2012), drew on ten collections published over three decades plus the title-collection, Unsent. Heath, a collaboration about Hounslow Heath with John Greening, was published by Nine Arches in 2016. Four portions of everything on the menu for M'sieur Monet!, a pamphlet, was published in 2016 by Indigo Dream Publications. Her latest collection, Will you walk a little faster?, was published by Bloodaxe in 2017.First published as a novelist, her fiction includes All the Usual Hours of Sleeping (1969), Wailing Monkey Em-bracing a Tree (1973) and Rainsplitter in the Zodiac Garden (1977). With Peter Redgrove, she is co-author of The Wise Wound: Menstruation and Everywoman (1978) and Alchemy for Women: Personal Transformation Through Dreams and the Female Cycle (1995), as well as a collection of poems, The Hermaphrodite Album (1973), and two novels, The Terrors of Dr Treviles: A Romance (1974) and The Glass Cottage: A Nautical Romance (1976).
