My History or Sleep: Selected Poems is out.
This selection draws on every book of my poetry since Returns of 1985 through to Words Out of Time of 2015, and is designed to sample in portable form both the recurring and developing themes of my work and their changing forms. The book opens with ‘chaos’ and ‘invention’; ends with ‘changing’ your ‘life’.
Purchase details here:
See various posts on my blog Pages about the selection and de-selection of the poems here and here. The first review may be read here.
This isn’t a book to buy for somebody else for Christmas: buy it for yourself!
