The Classical Farm won him a Cholmondeley Award, and his last two collections were Poetry Book Society Recommendations. Despite working away from the literary limelight as an archaeologist, this 'secular mystic with the lugubrious tongue' (Independent on Sunday) has attracted a dedicated readership: the TLS called him the best new poet published by Bloodaxe. Didsbury's staggering powers of invention, outrageous ?outing of convention and subversive humour are now fully and flagrantly displayed in Scenes from a Long Sleep. This startling volume is a feast of imaginative wonders which will win him even more new readers.
