'Swallow hibernating in mud, a kite-flourishing batcatcher, a suitcase full of parrots...Paul Bavister's poems are startingly imaginative. But there is no whimsy here, just a passionate rethinking of our relationship to the natural world. I read The Prawn Season at a sitting, like a thriller, which is exactly what it is.'
