The Man in the White Suit, Paperback / softback Book

Description

An exiled poet in an English seaside asylum... A winter night spent in the spooky penthouse suite of Ceausescu's vanished daughter...

A scientist trying to calculate the heart's square root...

All these figure in The Man in the White Suit, Nick Drake's first full-length collection, a Poetry Book Society Recommendation and winner of the Forward Prize for Best First Collection.

It portrays and celebrates a richly varied cast of characters whose secrets and histories are the central thread of the book, ranging from life studies of those caught out by exile from central Europe or caught up in the strange aftermath of the 1989 revolutions, to intimate love poems and portraits of those learning the arts and mysteries of dying.
