Inhaltsangabe

Euclid's Harmonics borrows its title from a mysterious lost manuscript by Philemon Holland, whose 'rare Greeke character' is said to have been the template for John Baskerville's famous typeface. Onto this ghostly text Jonathan Morley overlays a reckoning of his years in Coventry, manipulating register, form and language to create a dazzling, genre-defying collection of poetry. Baroque, sweeping, and with a scathing humour running throughout, Euclid's Harmonics captures humanity in its many guises, presenting an unsettling vision of impermanence, decay, and regret.
