• Format: ePub

Produktbeschreibung

As If To Sing explores the human condition through the language of music and does so with a mastery of poetics.' - Isobel Roach; Wales Arts Review

'He conveys complex emotions with beauty, economy and power and it's impossible not to be moved by his writing.' - Jenny White; The Western Mail.

The power of song, to sustain the human spirit, resonates through this new collection. Poems about family, the poet's relationship with his sons, the Ceredigion coast-line, this collection is rich in the musical lyricism for which Paul Henry is known and admired. As If To Sing is an essential addition to this poet's compelling body of work.
