“One is tempted to say that the most human plants, after all, are the weeds.” (John Burroughs, 1881) “Coming on like a south London Rimbaud, Amy Charlotte Kean gives us a ground level view of what makes us and breaks us. These weeds tell tales, biographies of the fragile yet indestructible; and are a reminder that life, however transient it might be in the dirt, is worth it. There is poison here, but much sweetness too.” – Rishi Dastidar, Poet (Nine Arches Press) “The ‘wet fire’ that burns on the pages of this book makes it uniquely attractive. Brilliant, inventive & powerful. This is one book everyone should own.” – Bola Opaleke, Poet
