Produktbeschreibung
A book of poems that takes language out to stretch and flex and bend itself into new shapes. It includes lyrics and satires that dance in the spaces that open up between intention and expression, the moment when the horse attempts to throw its rider.
The first book of poems by Oli Hazzard, this compilation exposes its author as a consummate master of language, a gifted writer of free verse with the ability to write in traditional poetic forms and stretch the forms to their limits. Through lyrical poems and satires, this collection explores contrasting milieus such as city and country and reality and dream, while subjects such as thefts and love affairs are expressed through palindromes, mirrored poems, and homophonic translations.
