Description

Philip Salom’s fourth collection of poems is strong testimony to his adroit control and originality of perception The range so evident in his previous books combines here with a more personal voice to reveal an increasingly intense and powerful exploration of language and behaviour.

These poems focus especially on the spirit of the city and the universal conditions of desire and communication, turning away at times to more subtle and emotional themes of family relationships.
