Poetry. Lyric or narrative in character, these poems are stitched through by the search for significance in the particular, whether at a train-station, draining a radiator, or eating chips, or on the alternative uses of Tipp-Ex, how not to take stairs, the joys of metal-detecting, or the vertigo of jet-lag. This sense of immanence below the surface, just beyond reach, is addressedthrough themes of family, memory, history, illness and recovery, travel, and exploration. This questioning, "sustained gaze," casts a steady, sombre eye over the everyday, but with care, candour and lightness, too.
