Horse-Woman
poetic memoir chapbook with author paintings.
Basic Bruegel Editions, Moncton, Canada, April, 2025.
A commissioned poetic memoir, Horse-Woman (Basic Bruegel Editions, Moncton, Canada, April, 2025) relates to a traumatic period earlier in Sarah’s life when she was working as a fashion model whilst painting and writing in a bohemian London bedsit. As an emotionally isolated child, with elderly parents, and an inability to verbalise, Sarah Tremlett was given a young horse to look after, which ultimately was sold against her wishes. Following her animal empathy, in this ‘stream of consciousness’ account of events, Sarah’s psyche creates a mythical, ‘otherkin’ horse persona which protects and interweaves with her experiences in the fashion world. The book contains paintings from the time, including Horse-Woman, and the cover Cowboy Riding the Horse of the World to Death is a response to how London’s poetic decay was being taken over by developers. The motif of ‘Women coming and going in a room’ from T.S. Eliot’s ‘Love Song of J. Alfred Prufrock’ is referred to as a parallel existence, but with ambiguous connotations, since it was one of the A-level texts that ended the equine part of her life.
The prologue ‘Flight’ is also a poetry film, centred on her early relationship with her mother. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CfbA3rlFOtg&t=2s

This presentation by poetry filmmaker, poet and theorist Sarah Tremlett, centres on her identification of a category of new narrative voice in the poetry film, as part of her five-year research encapsulated in her 400-page ‘industry bible’ The Poetics of Poetry Film (Intellect Books and The University of Chicago Press, 2021). Tremlett’s area of research is the philosophy of poetry film in audio-visual practice, and her interrogation of subjectivity and voice are central to this subject.

A commissioned poetic memoir, Horse-Woman (Basic Bruegel Editions, Moncton, Canada, April, 2025) relates to a traumatic period earlier in Sarah’s life when she was working as a fashion model whilst painting and writing in a bohemian London bedsit. As an emotionally isolated child, with elderly parents, and an inability to verbalise, Sarah Tremlett was given a young horse to look after, which ultimately was sold against her wishes. Following her animal empathy, in this ‘stream of consciousness’ account of events, Sarah’s psyche creates a mythical, ‘otherkin’ horse persona which protects and interweaves with her experiences in the fashion world. The book contains paintings from the time, including Horse-Woman, and the cover Cowboy Riding the Horse of the World to Death is a response to how London’s poetic decay was being taken over by developers. The motif of ‘Women coming and going in a room’ from T.S. Eliot’s ‘Love Song of J.
