The Dead Queen of Bohemia is a journey through a life lived on the edge.
With a poetic style influenced by Gertrude Stein and William Burroughs,
this collection is woven with surrealistic imagery that is both
unflinching and dislocating. Fagan's poetry is raw and tough yet
beautiful and tender and with themes of loss and recovery, hope and
defiance, represents a clarion call from a self-taught poet who started
writing at the age of seven and so far has not stopped. The Dead Queen
of Bohemia documents the progression of a voice and a life written over
the last twenty years. It opens with Jenni's most recent work and
includes her previous two collections, both now out of print.
