Synopsis
Reimagining myth, history, and literature, this compilation draws upon the poet’s remarkable travels and experiences as a doctor while working in some of the most remote parts of the world. As it brings Rimbaud, Dante, and 17th-century picaresque into play, this compilation explores the ultimate journey of crossing into another world or another life.

Paperback. Condition: New. In The Crossing Fee Iain Bamforth re-stages the odyssey of the legendary German hero who falls into a lake in the Black Forest and emerges in the China Sea. Circulating between Europe, the Philippines and Indonesia (where Bamforth worked for five years as a health consultant), the poems sound the 'plummet and allure' of life on both worlds. Grounded in myth and also in close observation, The Crossing Fee records a momentous exploration of space and history: 'For the tides are always bringing / news of something strange.'.
