Synopsis

"These poems disclose a poet's rich relationship to the natural world by stripping away, by letting a raw objectivist lyric scrape off any rhetorical surface to discover the details beneath. This happens in almost every line, every phrase-so much so that finally his individual words seem to do it by themselves. The result is that /nature/ here ticks and clicks as though it were trying to find a halfway-house language between itself and the writer. Illusion of course, the trick of poetry, and Mark Goodwin is the magician." (Tim Allen)

A propos du livre

À propos de l'auteur

Mark Goodwin was born in 1969, spent his childhood on a farm in Leicestershire, and now lives on a narrow-boat on the river Soar, just north of Leicester. He works as a community poet with a wide range of people, including pupils and teachers in schools and colleges, other writers and artists, museum services, and with people who use mental-health services. Mark has been learning to write poetry since he was 16, and during that time has developed a love of playing with language. Both of his Shearsman collections reflect his deep interest in what has been termed 'landscape'-whether that be on a run-down housing estate on the rim of Leicester, in an ancient stone circle on the edge of the Hebrides, or in amongst the intricacies of Cornish coastland.
