A lovely copy of the charming first ('interim') edition of Margaret Tait's second collection of poems, featuring Robin Philipson's striking lithographs to its boards. The Orcadian experimental filmmaker, poet and medical doctor, Margaret Tait (19181999) is best known for her lyrical "film poems" (32 short films and a single full-length film, Blue Black Permanent), which she shot and produced in the early 1970s on Orkney. As Tait's description suggests, her film work was poetic (in both form and content, including Hugh MacDiarmid, A Portrait), as well as in conversation with the natural world and Orcadian culture. Just over a decade earlier, Tait had self-published her own poems and short stories in five volumes (issued from her home on Rose Street, Edinburgh) in what she referred to as 'interim' editions, but no further editions ever followed. Her poetry and prose would only be reissued after her death in the 2012 collection Poems, Stories, and Writings, edited by Sarah Neely and with an introduction by Ali Smith (itself reissued in 2023). Smith described Tait's poems as "a revelation in so many ways, of her voice, her eye, her playful idiosyncrasy, her craft, her timing. They reveal her sources: the Bible, myth, medieval ballad, folk form and popular song, united with a modern legacy of breath-rhythm, directness of voice and openness of form characteristic of writers as vibrant and shape-shifting as Whitman, Hopkins, Lorca and Ginsberg, as argumentative, spontaneous-seeming and energetic as D.H. Lawrence (whose empathy, for instance, she emulates and simultaneously, very enjoyably, takes to task).".
