Some take a more traditional form, some are highly experimental, but what these poems share is a lyrical intelligence and musical gift that has been visible in his work since his first book of poems, Nil Nil, in 2009. Addressed to children, friends and enemies, the living and the dead, musicians, poets and dogs, these poems display an ambition in their scope and tonal range matched by the breadth of their concerns. Here, voices call home from the blackout and the airlock, the storm cave and the seance, the coalshed, the war, the ringroad, the forest and the sea. These are voices frustrated by distance, by shot glass and bar rail, by the dark, leaving the 'sound that fades up from the hiss, \/ like a glass some random downdraught had set ringing, \/ now full of its only note, its lonely call . . .'In 40 Sonnets Paterson returns to some of his central themes - contradiction and strangeness, tension and transformation, the dream world, and the divided self - in some of the most powerful and formally assured poems he has written to date. This is a rich and accomplished new work from one of the foremost poets writing in English today.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Far From The Madding Crowd","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":43924660420867,"sku":"9780571310913","price":12.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0404\/3207\/4914\/files\/9780571310913_375fd4a3-dae9-48b1-b46e-00cd85c1a956.jpg?v=1731416476"},{"product_id":"9780571330072","title":"A Bird's Idea of Flight","description":"\u003ch3\u003eAuthor:  Harsent, David \u003c\/h3\u003e\u003ch4\u003eLiterature \u0026amp; literary studies\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003ch5\u003ePublished on 6 April 2017 by FABER \u0026amp; FABER in the United Kingdom.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003ePaperback | 80 pages\u003cbr\u003e198 x 130 x 7 | 106g\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/h5\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eA Bird's Idea of Flight describes a circular journey in a sequence of 25 poems.

'A Book of Lives' draws together the themes that inform his poetic world. The largest vistas of human history, from twenty billion years BC to 9\/11 and the 'war on terror'; Scotland from Bannockburn to the opening of the Scottish parliament; portraits - of Rimbaud, the emperor Hirohito, Raeburn's skating Reverend Walker...Poems for birthdays and elegies celebrate friends; a dramatic dialogue about cancer sets personal experience in a wry evolutionary context.

It's as refreshing as it is instructive . . . Underwood has become one of my favorite poets.' Kaveh AkbarJack Underwood's poetry debut, Happiness (2015), was celebrated for its unconventional and daring tone: 'conversational, arresting . . . weird, singular' (Guardian). Such qualities are on accomplished display in this anticipated new collection, as the poems mature and move on to a wide range of preoccupations, including imminent societal collapse and public unrest; the limits, myths and complexities of masculinity and fatherhood; and uncanny, often amusing scenarios, such as serving drinks to a gathering of fifteen babies or group kissing in Empathy Class. Throughout, incongruous and domestic subjects realign in skewed lyrics and thought experiments, intimately expressed in 'a new language \/ of the familiar' ('The Landing'). All is presented with a generosity and tenderness that makes the poet so unmistakable - and indispensable for the strange times in which we live.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e'I was done in by these poems, but I really lived as I read them; each one holding life and time in a balletics of stress and flow.'

Told in the voices of women, including a chorus, a nearby mountain and the fortress herself, the uniting voice of the pamphlet is a 'girl', through whose eyes we see the minute details of life under immense stress and feel the nuances of loss, hunger and uncertainty. Again Behold the Stars is an intense immersion into a lockdown that challenges all the senses, one utterly different from the modern experience of lockdown during the Covid pandemic, yet also hauntingly resonant with it.

Its first half is composed of five sections, corresponding to the five arrows of Kama, the Hindu God of Love, Desire and Memory. From 'stunning' and 'paralysing' to 'killing' and 'destroying', each arrow has its own effect on some body - a very real, contemporary body - and its particular journey of love. The second is a long narrative poem, 'A is for [Arabs]', which follows a different kind of journey: a family of refugees who have fled to the West from conflict in an unspecified Middle Eastern country. With an extraordinary structure, yoking abecedarian and Fibonacci sequences, it is a skilful and intimate account of migration and exile, of home and belonging.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Far From The Madding Crowd","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":43924711047427,"sku":"9780571365562","price":12.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0404\/3207\/4914\/files\/9780571365562_de0eec2e-584c-47b3-81ae-5638477cd7df.jpg?v=1731416601"},{"product_id":"9781800783171","title":"Automotive : A Visual History of Automobiles","description":"\u003ch3\u003eAuthor:  Ralphs, Matt, Takemasa, Ryo \u003c\/h3\u003e\u003ch4\u003eInterest age: from c 9 years\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003ch5\u003ePublished on 13 April 2023 by TEMPLAR PUBLISHING (Big Picture Press) in the United Kingdom.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eHardback | 64 pages\u003cbr\u003e307 x 243 x 7 | 692g\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/h5\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eA stunningly illustrated tribute to all things car, Automotive celebrates the ingenuity and usability of cars, trucks and motorbikes past, present and future.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eFrom Karl Benz's Motorwagon, through to the flashiest, super-fast cars of today, Automotive is a spectacular look at the history of road vehicles throughout the world, and the fantasy and jaw-dropping awe they evoke.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003ePacked full of iconic models including the rip-roaring Hot Rods and luxurious limousines, Automotive is also jam-packed with some of the coolest and fastest races of all time, including the terrifying Isle of Man TT, the gruelling Monaco Grand-Prix, Automotive makes a stunning gift or reference book for car lovers of all ages.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eBeautiful artwork by the award-winning artist Ryo Takemasa, makes this book one that can be enjoyed over and over again.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Far From The Madding Crowd","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":43924711440643,"sku":"9781800783171","price":16.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0404\/3207\/4914\/files\/9781800783171_af8597ba-b719-45f2-bed3-f1d90b38e33c.jpg?v=1731331414"},{"product_id":"9781846975004","title":"Bale Fire","description":"\u003ch3\u003eAuthor:  Carruth, Jim \u003c\/h3\u003e\u003ch4\u003eLanguage\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003ch5\u003ePublished on 10 September 2019 by Birlinn General (Polygon An Imprint of Birlinn Limited).\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003ePaperback | 96 pages\u003cbr\u003e198 x 132 x 8 | 118g\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/h5\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eBale Fire is a book in three cycles.
