Inhaltsangabe

"These poems disclose a poet's rich relationship to the natural world by stripping away, by letting a raw objectivist lyric scrape off any rhetorical surface to discover the details beneath. This happens in almost every line, every phrase-so much so that finally his individual words seem to do it by themselves. The result is that /nature/ here ticks and clicks as though it were trying to find a halfway-house language between itself and the writer. Illusion of course, the trick of poetry, and Mark Goodwin is the magician." (Tim Allen)

Über diesen Titel

Über die Autorin bzw. den Autor

Mark Goodwin is a balancer, walker, climber, and stroller who speaks and writes in various ways in various places - on paper, on-line, blended with photos, in film-poems, to live audience, or through mixing his voice with field-recordings & soundscapes ... and often through collaboration with other artists. He is also a ground-aslanter, his work being included in Shearsman Books' ground-tilting anthology 'The Ground Aslant - An Anthology of Radical Landscape Poetry' (2011). To date (June 2017), Mark has published a number of full-length poetry collections and several chapbooks with various English poetry houses. He continues to explore on foot or with feet-&-hands English, Welsh, Scottish mountains, urban-rimlands, crags, coastlands, individual trees of various species, riverbanks, derelict buildings, lakeshores, woodlands, various fence-rails, suspended-narrow-ways and ... moors ...Mark was born in 1969, and grew up on a farm in South Leicestershire. For the past twenty years or so he has lived on a narrow-boat, just off the river Soar, a little to the north of Leicester.
