Description

Through the fads and fashions of the last thirty years Brian Patten has remained true to his own personal vision of poetry.

Whether composing lamentations to the terrible beauty of human love, or writing his outstanding popular verse for children, he has continued to articulate and illuminate the joys and sorrows of the everyday world.His reputation has been enhanced progressively by each of his collections, and now with translations into numerous languages including Italian, Spanish, German and Polish he is acknowledged as one of Europe's foremost contemporary poets.

Through his performance work he is certainly one of Britain's most popular poets.This new book of poems is Patten's eighth for adults.

With its powerful opening section interweaving poems about the death of his mother and memories of his childhood with her, it is at one and the same time his most personal and universal collection.

It is a book of remarkable poems offering sharp insights into life and the human condition.
