Description

From its opening page - a refugee's first sight of England - Changes of Address presents a journey through our times, a search for the meaning of 'home'.

With its humour and deep honesty, its vivid storytelling, its sense of history and brilliant observations of the here and now, this book of poems is as rich and multi-layered as a novel.

It brings together for the first time the whole range of Philip Gross's poetry from the 1980s and 90s - a generous selection from his Bloodaxe, Faber and Peterloo collections along with uncollected poems and work from limited editions and collaborations.

Changes of Address shows his development from the prize-winning Ice Factory to the Whitbread-shortlisted Wasting Game, but takes the reader also into previously unknown reaches of Philip Gross territory.

It does not cover his later work. He won the T.S. Eliot Prize for his 2009 collection The Water Table.
