The lights

A collection of poetry that is dazzlingly intelligent, moving and speaks directly to our complex times. 'The Lights' is a constellation of verse and prose, voice memos and vignettes, songs and silences, that brings the personal and the collective into startling relation. These are poems at once alive to the forces that shape human society and to the rhythms of the natural world, to the power of new technologies and the wonder of our timeless planet. Sometimes the scale is intimate and quiet and sometimes the poems are sweeping, Orphic experiments in the 'collectivization of feeling'.
