Little Gods
Language: English
Published by Pan Macmillan, United Kingdom, London, 2006
ISBN 10: 0330444204 ISBN 13: 9780330444200
Seller: WorldofBooks, Goring-By-Sea, WS, United Kingdom
Seller rating 5 out of 5 stars
Paperback. Condition: Very Good. While Jacob Polley's first collection, The Brink, announced a poet of great promise, few readers will be prepared for a work of the mature and slow power of Little Gods. Polley has been guided more and more by old-fashioned lyric inspiration of the sort all too rare in contemporary English poetry. In the quiet, insistent chants of his love poems and in his almost occult conjurings of time and place, Polley achieves both a directness of expression and unsentimental intimacy of address that only a poet of very considerable gifts could even attempt. Little Gods unequivocally announces Polley as one of the leading British poets of his generation. Praise for The Brink: 'The kind of poetry that imbues the everyday, the tarnished and burnished, with the possibilities of the transcendent' Guardian 'A sparkling collection of crystalline poems, succinct in their observation, precise in their form' The Times. The book has been read, but is in excellent condition. Pages are intact and not marred by notes or highlighting. The spine remains undamaged.

Ten Poems from Cumbria (Paperback)
Language: English
Published by Candlestick Press, Nottingham, 2025
ISBN 10: 1913627624 ISBN 13: 9781913627621
Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. Cumbria is a place of fellside and farmland, of lakes, saltmarsh and rugged coastlines. To the north lies the vast Solway Plain which looks across to Scotland. The poems in this selection conduct us on a journey of lively contrasts. We encounter weather, sheep, history, rivers, towns, traffic and dialect, and experience the vividness of living in a place of wide-lidded skies. On a summer walk we enter a transfigured landscape: This is a selection that crackles with all the colour and energy of England's most north-westerly county. Jacob Polley is a poet and novelist who was born in Cumbria. "The highest reaches of the beech - six trees close-packed - were flame and they were water. The green sun, the red cattle, the blue-faced sheep: everything primary-bright, solid." - from 'Cinderdale' by Helen Farish Poems by Josephine Dickinson, Helen Farish, WN Herbert, Kim Moore, MR Peacocke, Jacob Polley, Phoebe Power, William Scammell, David Scott and Claudine Toutoungi. Cover illustration by Mark A Pearce. 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.

Paperback. Condition: New. Though still in his mid-twenties Jacob Polley is already in possession of a remarkably mature talent. Formally graceful, but unself-conscious, his poems come at the reader from all angles, wholly alive to the unique possibilities of their subjects - the sea, the land, the home, the very brink of things. This debut collection gives us the first opportunity to see his transforming imagination in action, where a jar of honey becomes '. the sun, all flesh and no bones / but for the floating knuckle / of the honeycomb / attesting to the nature of the struggle'.
