Ye Cannae Win
Ye Cannae Win
Ye Cannae Win is the first collection of Janet Paisley's monologues, which have an uncanny ability to capture the human voice and express the innermost depths of thought and feeling of ordinary people.
Reading the Bones
Reading the Bones
Reading the Bones is Janet Paisley's fourth collection of poetry and is further testament to her extraordinary talents. Often disturbing, yet always life-affirming, it readily confirms the remarkable ability shown by her last collection, Alien Crop. Reading the Bones has a compelling resonance which marks Paisley as an exceptional poetic voice.

“Janet Paisley's poetry is never predictable, but always moulded by her distinctive character. She confronts painful experience and difficult, intimate emotions with understanding and mischievious humour. She celebrates sensuality, but fully conveys the intricacies of relationships. Her starting point is a woman's personal experience, but she speaks out about the real world, both its natural beauty and the suffering and joys of ordinary people.”

Her poetry astonishes each time. By turns angry, humorous, heartfelt and poignant, it is always characterised by an impeccable eye for detail and an ear tuned to truth… a great poet… Border Telegraph — Stuart B. Kelly

Janet Paisley… whose assured but unshowy phrase-making, dark figurative palette and metrical elegance made her the most technically adroit poet on display… urgent writing from a writer of whom a great deal more will be heard… The Herald — Donny O'Rourke
