Synopsis

Six years in the making, All is the second collection of poetry by Canadian-born, Yorkshire-based writer Robert Powell.

With one of the most precise, committed voices currently at work in the UK, Powell considers the individual moments that make up our lives and histories; whether in nature, in human interaction, or within the worlds of art and spirituality - the fragments that make up our 'all'.

These poems are both fragile and robust, touching and unsparing. His work is informed by a transatlantic sensibility that combines the best of North American and British approaches to verse, whilst also paying tribute to the unique art form that is European poetry in translation.

Composed of three mesmerising sequences, All is the best showcase yet for a wonderful and unique literary talent; poetry that is easy to start reading and difficult to stop.
