If and When You Still Can is a heartfelt and beautifully crafted collection of poems—reflective, and layered with quiet wisdom.

"This beautiful and playful journey of poems encourages me to take a closer look at the details of life. So tenderly observed, the people, places and spaces in these poems are special and very much loved. I'm craving a shared cup of tea and to take a walk in the garden."

— Margaret Tolland

"Moving between Scotland and Aoteoroa, these powerful poems pick up the detailed detritus of our lives - ‘the red flag of love' - and 'fold it up to put in a safe place' - the space between kindness and kindness."

— Peter Rawnsley
