TEN POEMS ABOUT BIRDS (CANDLESTICK PRESS) (NEW)

A revised second edition of the lovely little poetry pamphlet featuring ten works on our feathered friends from poets including Emily Dickinson, John Clare, Jean Atkin and Katrina Porteous. They beautifully imagine the brief and joyful lives of birds, while teasing out what thrills and moves us when we encounter them. A poem, it transpires, can reveal just as much as a pair of binoculars. The pamphlet features a cover by a leading contemporary artist - in this case linocut printmaker Cathy King - and comes with a bookmark and a brown eco-envelope for posting.
