Paperback. The weather is always a good topic of conversation, especially if we don't know the other person very well. Wherever we are on the planet we can't help noticing when it's too hot or too cold or something in between. In these ten poems we encounter everything from drought to a hurricane, taking in fog, snow and spring sunshine on the way. It goes without saying that there is also more than enough rain. The poems don't merely describe weather; they also capture how it can induce in us particular feelings and states of mind. In one poem, rain creates a very particular atmosphere: I love the privacy of rain, the way it makes things happen on verandahs, under canopies or in the shelter of trees - from 'Privacy of rain' by Helen Dunmore The poems are as varied as weather itself, taking us through the changing seasons and relishing the inevitable surprises that come along the way. Poems by Emily Bronte, John Clare, Gillian Clarke, Helen Dunmore, Norman MacCaig, Graham Mort, Grace Nichols, Sheenagh Pugh, Neil Rollinson and Annette Volfing. Cover illustration by Melissa Lhoirit. Includes one poetry pamphlet, eco-envelope and co-ordinating bookmark with space for your own personal message. Shipping may be from multiple locations in the US or from the UK, depending on stock availability.
