Works about this Work

Delight, Puzzle and Inform : Raewyn Alexander Reviews ‘Never Too Late’ by Beth Spencer Raewyn Alexander , 2019 single work review
— Appears in: Rochford Street Review , no. 26 2019;

— Review of Never Too Late Beth Spencer , 2018 selected work poetry

'Such hope in the title on a smart looking small book, then a rather sweetly distressed illustration, but still a lovely white feather on the cover. A sense of danger and also a lightness about it. In the work itself, amusement is ably shown and echoes of chances to live better or rethink some attitude, with variations on family life, friendships, love affairs, and other serious, close human matters. Many fine lines offer a sense of positivity and urgency. The language itself is ordered in ways to delight, puzzle and inform.' (Introduction)
