Bøger af Geraldine Monk

Geraldine Monk is one of Britain's foremost contemporary poets. This new collection from features the controversial A Nocturnall Upon St Lucies Day, a newly revised Raccoon and three new sequences: Glow in the Darklunar Calendar, Print & Pin and Poppyheads.

A major selection from Monk's work, including "Interregnum" in its entirety for the first time, here combined with new sequences not previously published. This is a substantial volume from a key British writer whose approachable experimental works are filled with wit, linguistic virtuosity and a sound grasp of the world we live in.

Working within the conventional form of the sonnet this sequence is on the surface one of Monk's most accessible works but the simplicity is deceptive. Each poem shifts and veers into unexpected complexity. Monk brings together disparate strands of uncertainty in a fragile world and she does it with her usual tenderness, ferocity and humour.
