Hurricane Watch New and Collected Poems brings together Jamaican Poet Laureate Olive Seniors first four books of poetry alongside a new collection. Recipient of the Musgrave Gold Medal in 2005 from the Institute of Jamaica, Senior has long been recognised as a skillful and evocative storyteller, but what this book shows is the consistency and range of her achievement. Seniors poems are delicate, formally playful, and always finely observed, whether responding to Jamaican birdlife, the larger natural world, or the traces of a complicated historical inheritance. Often, and always surprisingly, her poems brilliant descriptions and vivid, gripping narratives open out into ecological reflections, politics, and culture in original, surprising, and sensuous ways.
