Inhaltsangabe:

Red Letter Day is the latest collection from one of Scotland’s leading poets: ‘With a swashbuckling relish for language, and an intense lyricism allied to delicacy of phrase, Tom Pow’s new poems daringly set events of global significance against moments of startling intimacy, and the vulnerability of childbirth. Masterly evocations of landscape, from Scotland to South America and the Arctic, retain a sense of mystery, a still centre; triumphantly confirming his advocacy of harmony and humanity, and “the symmetry of love”, in the face of the howling world surrounding us. ’ – Stewart Conn
