Paperback. Condición: new. Paperback. Signs Round a Dead Body is the eagerly awaited follow-up to Deryn Rees-Jones's widely acclaimed first collection, The Memory Tray. Her humour, sharp technique and preoccupation with the dilemmas of women are as apparent as ever, but there is now a more intense personal focus.
