Books
* ''When You Said No, Did You Mean Never?''
["Within these poems, lives are measured out in things — shoes, tigers, tears, eggs, ironed shirts, and many, many bones. Fani Papageorgiou is, in truth, a palaeo-poet, reconstructing loss, desire, and other unknowables from the word-shards that she has sought to unearth and collate.
