Praise for Kathy's work
'Her poems are layered with myth, history, personal experience. They are full of fine observation, ….the real enriched by myth, and myth deepened by the essential realism of the poet's vision.'
Gillian Clarke
'These poems tug at the heart and reverberate as they soar and dive into our psyche.'
Menna Elfyn
'Kathy Miles is a poet with a unique voice. Her poems are dense and subtle, but always accessible.'
