Teapot in the Fridge is a collection of poems written in love, rage and despair by a wife caring for her husband as he descends into the no-man’s-land of dementia.The tone of the poems range from the desolate to the furious, and from nostalgia to hilarity to despair, but informing all of them is the sense – unshakeable – that 'what will remain of us is love.'  

'An outstanding illustration of the love and concern of one caring for a partner with dementia' – Timothy West.
