Description
A falling tortoise is a bizarre way to meet one's end, but it is typical of Sheenagh Pugh's wry humour that it finds a place in her poetry.

Whether describing the significance of the maximum break in snooker or exploring the mind of a Nazi, Sheenagh pugh's individual voice resonates through her crafted poetry.
