Cliff Yates's New & Selected Poems brings together over thirty years of inimitable work, from his Fenton-Aldeburgh Prize debut, Henry's Clock, to his most recent pamphlet, Another Last Word and beyond. His poems are moving, surprising and funny, sometimes in the space of a few lines, and, gathered together wonderfully here, add up to an oblique but compelling document of lives and times.
