June and Jennifer Gibbons (born 11 April 1963; Jennifer died in 1993), were identical twins who grew up in Wales. They became known as 'The Silent Twins' owing to their choice to communicate only with their immediate family. They began writing works of fiction but turned to crime in a bid for recognition. Both women were committed to Broadmoor Hospital where they were held for 14 years.

alder was heavy, listless,
its leaves studded with galls,
growing wherever we didn’t
want it.”
