Synopsis

From debris of collapsing stars, from gas and dust, where nothing is wasted, comes a stream of images. From 'Debris: a cycle of poems' - Jeremy Hooker's exciting new book of poems takes its title from the earthling, which God created from the dust of the earth. Exploring 'ground' in its material and metaphysical senses, as nature, historical place and ultimate reality, "Adamah" is a profound questioning of the 'human'. The collection reveals a deepening of Hooker's earlier preoccupations, and his continuing use adoption of a varied range of forms, including major poem sequences. There is a new collaboration with the sculptor Lee Grandjean, a group of poems commemorating the lives of Hooker's parents and his eldest brother, and the revised text of Hooker's poem for radio, "Landscape of Childhood".
