In the Country of Birds
Language: English
Published by Carcanet Press Ltd, GB, 2003
ISBN 10: 1857546415 ISBN 13: 9781857546415
Paperback. Condition: New. James Sutherland Smith's poems draw on his experiences of life in the Middle East and Middle Europe; what is most strange, they tell us, is to be found not in the exoticism of remote locales, but close to home. His language ventures into foreign and domestic places, into nature, politics, and the self-discoveries and self-deceptions of sexuality. A poem may begin as a purposeful quest but find its meaning in falling by the wayside. It may set out in full possession of its wits and end the journey distracted and unsure. All the poems are marked by a fascination with appropriate language and are alive to the textures of the world.

Add to basketPaperback. Condition: New. The poems in James Sutherland-Smith's eighth collection move from the garden into the neighbourhood of "a down-at-heel Hapsburg town" and then range into the nearby forest, the personal and the past. Borders are crossed and seemingly insignificant creatures suddenly gain visionary dimensions. The title poem recalls a poet whose attention to the small-scale made his work seem minor, yet as Hardy wrote "he noticed such things," a heedfulness absent in a contemporary world where both simplistic analysis and solutions constantly fail to address threats to our very existence.The namesake of a war criminalhas been chopping wood for three dayshefting an orange-handled axe.Behind him three hunting dogs barkat the nonchalant passage of a cat.

Popeye in Belgrade (Paperback)
Language: English
Published by Carcanet Press Ltd, Manchester, 2008
ISBN 10: 1857549694 ISBN 13: 9781857549690
Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. This collection records a final detachment, in all senses of the word, from the author s country of origin. Often the poems are set in places where political and social upheaval has recently occurred. They record the aftershock of moral and spiritual earthquakes often in intimate contexts. Both life in the Balkans, Eastern Europe and elsewhere are juxtaposed next to private experience so that personal and public feeling overlap. Political and social concerns are seldom addressed head on, but form part of each poem s texture in the same way that these concerns might become part of an alert and sensitive individual s life. Consequently, there is a strong focus on how the social and political combine with or intrude into personal lives and the processes of nature. A strong thematic element is the presence of music, not as an emollient source of consolation, but as a yet unattained level of meaning and feeling, perhaps because music simply represents an elusive otherness. The collection maintains faith that the English language remains vital and capable of providing experience and insight located in places and concerns that still command the world s attention. Features poems that emerge from places where political upheaval has recently occurred and records the aftershock of moral and spiritual earthquakes, often in intimate contexts. This book records the author's final detachment, in every sense of the word, from his country of origin.
