Poetry from the UK & Ireland

This is Ian Pople's first collection. His poems illustrate perfectly a mature use of language. An adept use of imagery and form are used as the vehicle to address his, and the readers', conflict between self and the universal diaspora. Pople touches the raw nerve of cultural alienation.

Not only does this volume deal with the subject of disability head on, but it does so without demanding sympathy from the reader. Keith Ashton was himself disabled and in this, his only full-length collection, he relays his hopes and fears, his highs and lows, in a combative manner which makes these frank poems essential and encouraging reading for the able-bodied and the disabled person alike.
