Hardback. Zustand: Good. A thrilling new collection from the hugely acclaimed British poet Simon Armitage. With its vivid array of dramatic monologues, allegories, and tall tales, this absurdist, unreal exploration of modern society brings us a chorus of unique and unforgettable voices. All are welcome at this twilit, visionary carnival: the man whose wife drapes a border-curtain across the middle of the marital home; the black bear with a dark secret; the woman who oversees giant snowballs in the freezer. My girlfriend won me in a sealed auction but wouldn't / tell me how much she bid, begins one speaker; I hadn't meant to go grave robbing with Richard Dawkins / but he can be very persuasive, another tells us. The storyteller behind this human tapestry has about him a sly undercover idealism: he shares with many of his characters a stargazing capacity for belief, or for being, at the very least, entirely genuine in his disbelief.

Paperback. Zustand: Good. Now in paperback, the powerful selected work of Simon Armitage, the most distinctive poetic voice of contemporary Britain.

His knowledge of the English just as they are ("a gentleman farmer / living on reduced means, a cricketer's widow, / sowing a kitchen garden with sweet peas"), his colloquial Yorkshire wit and eye for situational ironies, his ability to steal up on us with the surreal while capturing the ordinary speech of everyday life: these qualities place him at the forefront of British poetry today.
