Poetry. Jan Owen writes of childhood and nature, of relationships, travel, art and science. Many poems in THE OFFHAND ANGEL shuttle between widely differing perspectives: the local and the exotic, the cosmic and the microcosmic, the physical and the metaphysical. A sense of transience and loss is balanced by the sensuousness and musicality of her work, and by a driving curiosity about the world.
