Collected Poems 1970-1992

By Helen May Dennis

Helen May Williams is the author of June: a biographical novel (Cinnamon Press 2020), Catstrawe (Cinnamon Press 2019) and The Princess of Vix (ThreeDrops Press 2017). Her parallel text translation of Michel Onfray's Before Silence is published by The High Window Press (2020). During lockdown she participated in a befriending-by-phone project, which resulted in a publication with co-authors Dominic Williams and Mel Perry: Hold the Line (People Speak Up 2021). Also during lockdown she planted 700 saplings in the field beside her house, renaming it Coed Cae Claer - an allusion to R. S Thomas's sonnet 'The Bright Field'. The story of this is told in Coed Cae Claer (Cinnamon Press 2023).

Helen May Dennis wrote poetry and drama from the age of eight. Her juvenilia was lost in the mid eighties, when her parents cleared out their attic prior to moving house. This volume covers the two decades from her twenty-first birthday; it reflects both her personal history and her academic preoccupations, especially with the medieval Occitan troubadours, European modernism, and cultural feminism.
