Over a decade in the making, Flowers of Sulphur marks a fresh phase in Mario Petrucci’s engagement with the fundamentals of human existence. Disarmingly various, these remarkable new poems alert us to the resistance, as much as to the malleability, of language and life. They reconcile like the quantum world they reflect apparently paradoxical qualities, combining clarity and complexity, fusing science with psyche, in forms as precise as they are compelling. Pungent with experience, here is a poetry that, moment to moment, reinvents itself so as to unsettle- and inspire.

Ecologist, PhD physicist and Royal Literary Fund Fellow Mario Petrucci is a multi-award-winning poet and residency frontiersman, the only poet to have been resident at the Imperial War Museum and with BBC Radio 3. Mario is four times winner of the London Writers competition, has won prizes in the National Poetry Competition, and is recipient of a PBS Recommendation, the Bridport Prize, an Arts Council England Writers' Award and a New London Writers Award. His Arvon-winning collection Heavy Water: a poem for Chernobyl, below, was the basis of a film by Seventh Art Productions. Aspiring to reach 1111 poems in the vast 'i tulips' project, Petrucci’s tulips promise to grow into a truly ambitious landmark body of work” (Poetry Book Society Bulletin).
