A formidable follow up to her award-winning debut poetry collection, Len Pennie's Poyums Annaw is just like her: defiant, angry and trailblazing. These poems are a call to arms, confronting ideas of patriarchy, gender-based violence and societal injustice with equal parts tenderness, quick-wit and righteous fury. Poyums Annaw firmly cements Len as a defining voice in contemporary Scots poetry.
