Meer over het boek

Michael Gottlieb writes in his introduction that, following on from his Songs to Come for the Salamander , and Sorties , Mark Young continues to share the poems he writes every day, nearly every day. And we are the better for it. These are poems about what he sees. What he wants to see. What – he knows – we, the readers, need to see. And now we do see. And John Geraets adds that the world seems intent on losing its sense of magic, but Mark Young is less than convinced. His irrepressibility as a poet means that he somehow manages to enter the door that others are in the process of leaving, and vice versa. He is master over poetic language as a reflexive tool, in which the world’s coming and going are free to spin round each other, tellingly, enthrallingly. Your order is now equipped for shipping continues to show that his poetry is as significant in the present day as any we have before us.
