In this innovative new book of poetry, Mike Jenkins continues his life-long obsession with the history and fate of Wales, embodied, in this instance, by both the glories of the landscape and the depredations suffered by the old industrial valleys in their years of decline. These poems are full of colorful characters, dialogue, and incidents. The sensitive awareness of the natural world, or what is available of the natural world in an urban context, is frequently poignant.
