Paperback. Condizione: new. Paperback. You're on a brief plateau, a diagnosis rising with the sun, a summit you can't come down from, snow-blind, hypothermic in the Himalayas, and mea new sherpa, but by the time I reach youand I will reach you I'll be dead myself. In Ultraviolet, time splinters, teacups explode and two young brothers wrestle in their childhood bedroom. Like a hot, quick strike of lightning, Colin McGuire illuminates the shock of losing his brother to cancer. Strange, tender, darkly ironic and infused with a bittersweet nostalgia, these poems explore family, illness, grief, splintered memory and the limits of self-help speak. Ultraviolet light is undetectable to almost all human eyes. In turn, these poems traverse the otherwise undetected moments that go on to transform us.'At the heart of elegy is a yearning to communicate: to whistle to the dead and hear a whistle back. Colin McGuire's collection bursts with this elegiac love, it's a psychic phone call, a summoning, a casual chat, a whistle through time and space, reminding us that death cannot end the conversation.' Caroline Bird'Ultraviolet is provocative, heartfelt, joyful and heartbreaking, memories and moments suspended in time like dust motes in sunlight.' Carrie Marshall'Grief permeates Ultraviolet; it is a background hum that never quite fades away. But these poems are brimful of love, too. They celebrate what was and what remains. This is a vibrant collection, often surprising, always rewarding.' Malachy Tallack In Ultraviolet, time splinters, teacups explode and two young brothers wrestle in their childhood bedroom. Like a hot, quick strike of lightning, Colin McGuire illuminates the shock of losing his brother to cancer.

Paperback. Condizione: New. This is the first book to take political devolution as an organising context for the presentation and discussion of main currents in contemporary Scottish poetry. The book combines thematic chapters with in-depth analysis of key poets writing in English, in Gaelic and in Scots, to address the central issues raised in work that is responding to changes in the socio-economic and political environment over recent decades: the influence of tradition (both national and international); the question of language; the rise of women's writing; the relationship between poetry and politics; and the importance of place to the Scottish imagination. The chapters demonstrate a broad range of interests, while also offering detailed analysis of the many ways writers broach their subject matter; including close readings of poetry by Edwin Morgan, Kenneth White, Aonghas MacNeacail, Kathleen Jamie, John Burnside, Robin Robertson, Mick Imlah and Don Paterson, among others. Chapters by practicing poets and by academics deliver senses of the current range and quality of poetry in Scotland.Key Features*A thorough guide to contemporary Scottish poetry and poets, making the book an ideal course text *Reflects the ways in which the work of Scottish poets reflects a radical cultural independence following Devolution*Provides authoritative essays by the leading experts in the field*Includes a valuable synoptic bibliography.…
