A collection of poems by Anne Michaels. The poems are meditations on how love changes in order to survive, how we move from "obsolete science" to new perceptions, and how, in her words, "the same loneliness that closes us/ Opens us again".

Michael Ondaatje " 'Skin Divers' is a series of meditations on the intensity of love and has an intimacy at times so tender it hurts...Love is profoundly explored" The Times " Michaels is a marvellous poet, a beautiful word- weaver, who combines intellect with lived insight" Daily News
