The Delicious Lie by Georgina Blake

This is Georgina Blake’s debut collection.

The Delicious Lie marks the arrival of a fresh, highly talented new voice onto the British poetry scene. Georgina Blake writes with zest and fluidity. Her innovative combines sensibility with an unblinking political vision. Her words are by turns evocative, outrageous, satirical and serious, as she applies her pen to a wide range of themes. ‘These poems are witty, intelligent, realist, truthful, and full of love. This is a black woman growing, feeling her own strength, gaining from it. All subjects are touched as touched by womanself – some of the best poetry you will ever read!”
– Sister Netifa
