Self Portrait as Ornithologist

‘Lloyd’s work is grounded in precise observation, but the best of it goes beyond that in its unsentimental empathy and its imaginative inventiveness.’ (Acumen)

Self Portrait as Ornithologist was published by Wayleave Press in July 2020.

‘Both language and approach in these poems are alive and rich in invention. There’s none of the stale deja-vu of more derivative writers. She is ‘her own woman’… ‘ (Artemis)

‘The work is timely. It may be pre-pandemic but the precarious chaos of the world is all around. And yet, there’s more: I loved the way her humour kicked in, just when I needed it.’ (Spinx)

‘In waiting for the grand and impressive we often miss the wonderous things right under our noses. In this collection, we mutually rejoice as the poet unearths small, unexpected treasures’ (Sabotage Reviews)
