Signed by both the poet, Emilia Ivancu, and the translator, Diarmuid Johnson, this first edition is in very good condition. In Washing my Hair with Nettles, Emilia Ivancu describes a natural world that lives as profoundly and passionately as the people who inhabit it. The landscape of her poetry resonates with soul and animism: mountains dream of music, wild creatures heal wounds, and women tread the thin line between modern day reality and traditional myth with delicate respect.
