Far Field, Paperback / softback Book

Far Field Paperback / softback

Paperback / softback

Description

Far Field is the third and final book in The Auchensale Trilogy, a series of poetry cycles capturing the changing rural landscape of the West of Scotland.

Following on from its predecessors Black Cart and Bale Fire, the book consists of three cycles bound together by footers. A number of poems in the early part of the book are in response to paintings by the Glasgow Boys particularly those painted during their time spent in agricultural communities.

Many of the poems are highly personal with a number about family members.

These include a series of elegies for his late father.

It also focuses on the present day looking to the challenges ahead for the family farm and that passing baton to the next generation.
