Clare Pollard

Author

Clare Pollard is a British poet, novelist, translator and editor who has published multiple poetry collections and written for theatre and radio. She was awarded an Eric Gregory Award for her poetry and has been a prominent voice in British literary life. Delphi is her novel, a darkly comic exploration of motherhood, mythology and... domestic life during the COVID-19 pandemic. A mother turns to the ancient Greek oracle tradition while trapped at home with her children, and the classical world collides with the chaos of modern parenting. Pollard writes with wit, intelligence and a sharp eye for absurdity. Her audiobooks and books are brilliant listening for fans of literary fiction that is funny, clever and unafraid to mix the mythological with the mundane. Read more Show less
