Omschrijving

A lifetime of lyrical observation from a major voice in British poetry.

Andrew McNeillie's Striking a Match in a Storm gathers seven collections, including Making Ends Meet and the Forward-Prize-shortlisted Nevermore. These poems, marked by precision and a keen ear, explore the wild margins of Britain and Ireland, focusing on place, community, and the natural world. Like McNeillie's acclaimed magazine Archipelago, the collection offers close observation of the environment and outdoor experience.

McNeillie, also known for his memoir An Aran Keening, brings a witty and ironic yet visionary perspective. His poems sharpen our vision of the natural world and its crucial details. This collection is for readers of poetry, nature writing, and those interested in British and Irish culture. Discover a world of melancholy, nostalgia, and awe in McNeillie's evocative verse.
