Moon Jellyfish Can Barely Swim

Rooted in her island home, Ness Owen's second collection explores what it is to subsist with whatever the tides bring in poems that journey from family to politics, womanhood and language. In the ebb and flow of an ever-changing world, starlings fall from the sky, votes are cast, a village is drowned, a petrified forest is revealed and messages wash up in seaworn bottles on the shoreline.

Ness Owen lives on Ynys Mô n (Anglesey) in Wales where she writes poetry between lecturing and farming. She has been widely published in journals and anthologies including Planet Magazine, Mslexia, The Cardiff Review, The Interpreter’ s House, Ink Sweat & Tears, The Atlanta Review, and Poetry Wales. Her first collection Mamiaith (Mother Tongue) was published in 2019. Her poems have been translated into five different languages.
