This short collection of poems spans more than a decade - the period between 1989 and 2003. Their mood is something like a half-way house between my work in previous and post decades and is a sort of 'bridging period'. Therefore it feels right that this collection is released into the public arena alongside my very latest work: 'Gain of Function' - these two books will be a vanguard for my lifelong commitment to poetry and there is much more to follow, from both my past and current work.

Produktbeschreibung
This short collection of poems spans more than a decade - the period between 1989 and 2003. Their mood is something like a half-way house between my work in previous and post decades and is a sort of 'bridging period'. Therefore it feels right that this collection is released into the public arena alongside my very latest work: 'Gain of Function' - these two books will be a vanguard for my lifelong commitment to poetry and there is much more to follow, from both my past and current work. You may find an underlying sense of bitterness about some of the poems in 'Hope in the Heart of Hatred', perhaps bordering on cynicism - but it is a tooled bitterness, sharpened to provide explanation, reason and defiance - there are also many moments of humour here too and it is essentially a book about hope.
Autorenporträt
Peter Hague has written most of his life and always returned to it, like it was some sort of duty - a way of explaining the world - or testing it. His various books of poetry, including 'Summer With The Gods', 'Louder Prayers' and 'The Momentary Clock' all display a landmark development of his talent - one defined in a period of re-invention which began to take place around 2016. Also available are 'Gain of Function', which is a collection produced during the febrile atmosphere of the pandemic, and 'Hope in the Heart of Hatred': a 'bridge' between his earlier work and the work he is doing now, such as 'The Laments of the Soul'. A number of other books are in production, encompassing both his exciting current work and a revival of his early output, stretching back to the nineteen-seventies. He has finally decided to concentrate his remaining years in becoming a lasting voice in the pageant of poetry.
