"In this brilliant collection, Mark Dickinson ranges - with a passionate, weary restlessness - over bird, plant, monetary, sexual, and internet networks, but mocks any easy connection between these. His tone varies from lovingly intimate to bitingly witty, picking up language from taxonomic systems, social media, travel and nature writing, but all the while retaining a lyric intensity and sense of dynamic, layered, threatened living spaces. We feel, powerfully, the search for values we might live by, but the work demonstrates again and again that this is hard to come by: 'Gathering a sense of love from a hole of black earth is dark dark, & everything is leaving'." -Harriet Tarlo
Autorenporträt
Mark Dickinson grew up in Yorkshire and Cleveland, and lives in Westray, one of the North Isles, with his partner and two children. He has written poetry since 17, when he had a chance encounter with a book whilst living in a small fishing village in southern Morocco. He studied at Hull, Palacký and the Centre for Alternative Technology, but has never strayed too far from Oceans and Seas. He practises plant based input farming, simplistic living and sustainable building. His poetry engages with the entanglements of harm through aspects of place.
