Clare Pollard

Pollard, a wunderkind who wrote her first poetry collection while still at school, is a good match for the equally precocious Ovid…these are lively versions, seasoned with both agony and irony, reanimating Ovid’s originals. -Josephine Balmer, The Times

Clare Pollard’s most recent collection Changeling was a Poetry Book Society Recommendation. Her latest book, a new version of Ovid’s Heroines, is currently touring as a one-woman show with Jaybird Live Literature. Clare lives in South London with her husband and son, and blogs regularly about life as a poet at www.clarepollard.com
