Rarely has the (covid normal) quotidian been so lovely – and so full of dread. Rarely has breath been so dangerous – or so treasured. Within the thoughtful cadences of Increments of The Everyday the world is going about its work – while a woman watches. Rose Lucas has achieved wonders.

This is a collection of poems not afraid to be still. While acknowledging anxiety, isolation and grief, Lucas invites us to breathe in the goodness of relationships, gardens and art…. This is a poetics of openness that Lucas has made quite her own.
Phillip Hall
Increments of the Everyday is an extended meditation on grief and healing. After every loss, there is damage, adjustment, and slow forward movement:
‘attuned attenuated/I am learning to walk/in a way I have not walked before’.
