Riassunto

Selected as a POETRY BOOK SOCIETY RECOMMENDATION in Autumn 2002, Julian Turner's outstanding debut was subsequently shortlisted for the Forward Prize for Best First Collection.

"Julian Turner's poems are concerned with a refreshingly wide range of subjects, from the interpenetrating identities of these islands to the fugitive colours of actual love, all distinguished by a compassion as intense as their musicality. He can also be very funny; his celebration of the epic bathos of golf has already been identified as a classic anthology piece of the future." - Ian Duhig

"These seriously entertaining poems have a scope and ambition you'll be hard pushed to find in other debuts." - Paul Farley

Julian Turner was born in Cheadle Hulme, near Manchester, in 1955. He lives with his partner and daughter in Otley, West Yorkshire, and works for the Leeds branch of Mind, the mental health charity.
