With the Poetry in Print series printmaker Joe Buchanan and writer Maria McMillan continue their long standing collaboration that includes fringe festivals, giant poetry banners hanging from  buildings, protest street theatre, satirical leaflets, two children and thousands of meals which Joe cooks exceptionally well and Maria eats with some genius. 

The lines are from  from Maria's 2017 poetry book The Ski Flier.  Of 'Miracle' Maria says "My book is full of poems about mountains, I was reading a lot about the experience of avalanche survivors but I think there's wider application, right?".

Text was set in Gloucester Condensed. and printed on the 8-5 Adana Press Joe shares with his twin brother and which lives in an old railway worker's hut in their mother's back garden. 

All prints are securely packaged with firm card and plastic wrapping helping to ensure they arrive in pristine condition.  This print is also available as part of the Poetry & Print - Set of 5.
