Man Walking on Water with Tie Askew
Margaret Wilmot writes like a true citizen of the world. She is as at home in the nine-part sequence: Quanta US: 'Wide-screen America.../ prelude to a Western, ' as in a sailor's hostel in Buenos Aires: (Your Holiness, Your Grace, Dear Sir, Dear Pope). She writes with a gleaming, persistent sense of wonder. Small, yet vital details are spotted, pondered and brought into the spotlight of her keen gaze, becoming poignant, whimsical and deeply significant in turn. Horse riding in Santa Catalina (Santa Catalina), she is halted by a migration of frogs: 'Each step will be a killing', and who knew that the bullying magpie can recognise itself in mirrors? Just like humans! (The Thriving Magpie) This collection breathes with her dazzling use of language, and what I can only define as a sort of heightened energy underpinned by an indefinable sense of spirituality. It is a unique and welcome addition to a sometimes rather tired contemporary poetry scene
Man at the Ice House
A welcome full first collection from Alison Mace. Poems about family relationships, and by implication love and loss, are delicately and minutely observed and felt. She writes fearlessly on ageing and death, but these are not mournful poems - rather they are truthful and moving. Mace is skilled in sustained verse form and also subtle in her use of it, as, for example, rhymes and half-rhymes which make their impact within lines as surely as they do when they appear as line endings. Included is a long novelistic sequence set in New England - an absorbing tour de force commemorating the long life of her American aunt. Joy Howard, Editor, Grey Hen Press
Out of the Blue
With passion and immense technical control, Wendy Klein's Out of the Blue takes us from the Cuba of Hemingway and Viva la revolución, to Jackson Pollock and Disney's Cinderella, Ho Chi Minh and the Laugharne of Dylan Thomas. Blue is indeed the colour of wisdom in these inspiring poems of twentieth century history, and nowhere more powerfully than in the stories of the poet's own family. William Bedford
