Wills gives readers the exceptional at the heart of daily life, invites us to suspend disbelief, enable the surreal.She begins Making the Wedding Dress with a quote from a handbook on sewing and asks what can be fixed, what does it mean to make a daughter's wedding dress. The collection fans out to explore bullying, money, trade, rats and sinkholes. A third section questions how humans relate to other species, speculates on a worm's opinion of people, the communal life of starlings. The book ends on ideas of exits and entrances, home, absences within a family and the fragility of care.Making the Wedding Dress makes many unexpected connections, moving from sauna to plum tree, to a luxury yacht cruising off Brighton beach. It asks what crows think of humans, it urges its readers to question what is normal.Jackie Wills' six previous collections have taken on big issues but her poems are always grounded. Her poems have been described as warm and witty, satirical, feminist and unputdownable. She starts with the mundane, then exaggerates - a list of the many words used to describe a woman, a sequence of short, impressionist poems on the surreality of menopause.Liz Lochhead described her 1995 debut, Powder Tower (Arc 1995), as "full of fabulous and exact fictions about ordinary family life". Writer Robert Macfarlane described her second book Party (Leviathan 2000) as "a very fine collection indeed".

Writer Robert Macfarlane described her second book Party (Leviathan 2000) as a very fine collection indeed. Jackie Wills' poems are witty, stylish and taboo busting. They move from a super yacht to allotment, sewing as act of devotion, ask if age brings truth or destruction. Imagine Cruella de Ville on the train to Brighton, ancient philosophers on the beach. Enter today's surreal world fearless, Wills urges. Shipping may be from multiple locations in the US or from the UK, depending on stock availability.

Jackie Wills brings a multitude of characters to these poems including a young man sleeping in his car, an amateur entomologist, bird catchers, her jilted aunt, Ray Dorset, the three Robins, the office cleaner, family, friends and several gardeners. Her poems move from the GP surgery to eye clinic, dance studio to allotment, back and forward in time and from Brighton's streets to the landscapes of South Africa. In this collection, a woman caught unawares by a changing body and attitudes as she ages strains to see the funny side of her last smear. But there are also many elegies and tributes to old friends in A Friable Earth, Wills' sixth collection of poems. Her work has been described as irreverent, bewitching, compassionate and surreal. She's written extensively about women's lives. She's also worked an allotment for 20 years.
