Reviews
"Selima Hill is an inimitable talent. The mind is fragile and unreliable in her poetry, but is also tenacious and surprising, capable of the most extraordinary responses, always fighting back with language as its survival kit. Life in general might be said to be her subject, the complications, contradictions and consequences of simply existing. Nevertheless, Hill's writing is eminently readable and approachable, even fun at times, the voice of a person and a poet who will not be quieted and will not conform to expectations, especially poetic ones." - Simon Armitage, UK Poet Laureate, on behalf of The King's Gold Medal for Poetry Committee "The collection is by turns surreal and direct, but always arresting. Her trademark humour is present throughout, but its wit can often surprise the reader, conveying truths in hilarious and sometimes shocking ways. The judges were impressed by Selima's mastery of the portrait in miniature - one of the judges calling her 'the UK's Emily Dickinson.'" -- Forward Prize Judges, on Selima Hill's Men Who Feed Pigeons 'Selima Hill is a one-off, and her restless magpie mind unpicks the fragile seams of everyday experience, revealing the darkness beneath. We can choose to laugh, or we can choose to cry, but there's no easy escape from the disconcerting experiences Hill promises her reader.' - John Field, for the T.S. Eliot Prize, on Men Who Feed Pigeons 'Her adoption of surrealist techniques of shock, bizarre, juxtaposition and defamiliarisation work to subvert conventional notions of self and the feminine...Hill returns repeatedly to fragmented narratives, charting extreme experience with a dazzling excess.' - Deryn Rees-Jones, Modern Women Poets 'She is truly gifted. She invests mundane things with visionary, delirious brilliance.' - Graham Swift, The Sunday Times, "Selima Hill is an inimitable talent. The mind is fragile and unreliable in her poetry, but is also tenacious and surprising, capable of the most extraordinary responses, always fighting back with language as its survival kit. Life in general might be said to be her subject, the complications, contradictions and consequences of simply existing.

Over 254 pages, Hill creates a new kind of narrative poem, which has all the rewards of reading a good novel - or novels - yet she retains poetry's unique ability to zoom in on minutiae ...' - Philip Terry, The Guardian (The best recent poetry round-up), on Women in Comfortable Shoes 'Surging with shrieks of pain and howls of laughter, these poems transform life's inevitable mundanities into the fizziest, memorable moments.' - Jo Clement, PBS Selector, Poetry Book Society Summer Bulletin 2023, on Women in Comfortable Shoes 'Her poems resist analysis. Short, precise and startling, funny in both senses, they make everything else look like pretentious waffle... Hill is especially good at capturing young girls' voices, a strength of the early sequences here, in a book that charts a kind of Seven Ages of Woman ... Selima Hill is a great poet.' - Tristram Fane Saunders, The Telegraph (Poetry Book of the Month) on Women in Comfortable Shoes "The collection is by turns surreal and direct, but always arresting.

She invests mundane things with visionary, delirious brilliance.' - Graham Swift, The Sunday Times 'I love Selima Hill. There are several sequences in this book - that's just one that I've talked about, and I've only talked about a fraction of the short poems in it - but you get so much from them. The juxtaposition of poem after poem is a fabulous experience. Her first collection came out in 1984, and she's been very prolific, so there's lots of Selima Hill out there - if I were you, I'd go get some!' - Frank Skinner, Frank Skinner's Poetry Podcast , on Men Who Feed Pigeons, "Selima Hill is an inimitable talent.
