Loggerheads: Signed Print Edition
“Is it better to be at odds with the world, or with one’s self?” (Karen Pierce Gonzalez)
“Moments that feel as universal as they do personal… these poems let in the light, always. More than this: they both admit and submit to love’s healing.” (Mark Anthony Owen)
Lucy Heuschen’s second chapbook, Loggerheads won The Broken Spine’s Annual Chapbook Competition and was published in 2024. Lucy writes poignantly about a life lived in fierce determination to follow her own path. From childhood in 1980s London to the challenges of career and motherhood, the heartbreak of relationships and serious illness, we follow a roadmap created by difficult choices. Yet a spirit of hopefulness, the search for love and acceptance, are never far from the surface in these poems which Julie Stevens calls “emotionally charged” and “exquisite”.
