	Review: The Lady and the Hare by Pauline Stainer \| Review \| Guardian Unlimited Books
		Stainer's material is language interacting with the imaginative truth of myth, and with the various degrees of significance and possibility offered by science.
		Stainer's purpose has rightly been described as demonstrating that ancient worlds are of a piece: that old rituals still obtain, that old beliefs still govern instinct.
		Stainer was for a time her own Prospero, living on the Orkney island of Rousay.

		Pauline Stainer's first full collection, The Honeycomb, was not published until she was 48 years old.
		I do not suggest that Stainer set herself a similar curriculum to STC before putting pen to paper but there is some critical relevance in considering this matter of poetic content.
		Pauline Stainer, in reviewing her own book writes: 'This desire to shape the source, this deep fetching, lets dynamics surface from water which the sun never reaches.' Her work is full of obsessions, of hauntings, of those images......

		When Pauline Stainer published her first full collection of poems in 1989, she was already 48 years old and a mother of four children.
		By 1999, Pauline Stainer had relocated from rural Essex to the Orkneys, and although the economy of expression remained in her collection Parable Island, the emphasis shifted to land and seascapes of her new home: ‘When the sea mist/burns off at noon,/you could slip a blade/between the sea and the sky’ (Parable Island).
		Like Pauline Stainer it tends towards the mystical, but Whitehead’s world is an altogether less chilly, more human place, in spite of all the angels and unicorns that populate it.

		Pauline Stainer’s poem was written in 1992, at a time of a general stir of interest in the history of the Atlantic : the slave trade, colonization and the migration of labour.
		The Pauline Stainer poem, in particular, often leads to a very interesting discussion on the questions of who is talking, when and to whom.
		This is particularly true of the Pauline Stainer poem, where the slaves are not evoked explicitly, but as “ a slight shift of cargo ”.

		Stainer is gathering objects of veneration, and forms of words to hymn them, in one.
		Stainer’s world-view is completely pre-scientific, a hoard of marvels and exotica sorted by analogy.
		Stainer recalls the red ochre with which Palaeolithic Man marked burials, a symbol of blood and life – like the cinnabar which, in its guise as mercury oxide, blew up Vaughan (“heavy shining oxide / of yellow and red”).

		Pauline Stainer’s The Lady and the Hare: New and Selected Poems, is a more than adequate introduction to this remarkable poet’s career.
		Whether setting a broken leg in plaster or tightening the jesses on a falcon’s talon, the skilled practitioner will appeal to Stainer as engaged in a kind of sacrament, to which, I suspect, the writing of poetry is, in her mind, equivalent.
		Stainer adores what Hopkins called the ‘gear and tackle and trim’ of ‘trades’, and her poems are full to the brim of references to precision instruments in particular — to ‘carbide-tipped drills’, ‘diamond-tipped scalpels’ and ‘scalpels / of divining-silver’.

		The twined depth of community, nature's unrelenting yet magnificent power, and the shifting nature of meaning's horizon all find their corollaries in those remote islands, with their intense small towns set in a bleak and beautiful landscape.
		Stainer's brief poems are formal, but in a nontraditional sense.
		Most stunning, the entire book works as a single poem, for its themes echo throughout, similar images flicker in and out, and single, resonant words are repeated to create a dense pattern of sound and meaning.

	Pauline Stainer (1941- )
		Pauline Stainer was born in Burslem, Stoke-on-Trent and went on to gain a degree in English at St. Anne's College, Oxford and a Masters degree at Southampton University.
		Stainer's poetry was distinctive among the new generation of poets for several strong reasons, not least the powers of her reason, the natural balance and maturity of her intelligence, and the fact that her poems were written in a way that most of the then current poetry wasn't: her poetics was difficult, strange and challenging.
		She was awarded a Hawthornden Fellowship in 1987 and was shortlisted for the Whitbread Poetry Award in 1996 for The wound-dresser's dream.

		The poet has kindly dropped lots of hints about the section of the library the reader should go to.
		Each line's an anagram of the poem's final line - "Pauline Stainer", a sometimes obscure poet!
		I think this is clever, and again the poet has helped the reader.

		Subject: Re: British Women Poets It's always fascinated me that poets, like comedians, don't seem to travel very well and that, by all appearances, very few contemporary British poets are known in the States and, likewise, only a handful of young American poets are read here.
		As far as contemporary women writers go, I would second the recommendations of Carol Ann Duffy, Pauline Stainer and Sujata Bhatt.
		Bhatt, by the way, actually grew up in the States and attended the Iowa Writers Workshop, where she met her German husband and moved back home to Bremen with him, but she's still often listed as a "British" poet.
