Description
"In House At Out, Mark Goodwin steps beyond the physical landscapes of Back of A Vast, into a new topography: a world that is a "wild's inf i nite b its" approached through the gaps and hollows in the word. The holes are apertures as we zoom into language, crack open word hordes and find worlds of association, "hole keys" with which we open kinetic lands as nimble as "music thinking of water". Here are poems that "house and home // and hone a mind of sky-leaf sheets." Step out with this book and relish the trip elsewhere." -Simon Perril
About the Author
Mark Goodwin was born in 1969, spent his childhood on a farm in Leicestershire, and now lives on a narrow-boat on the river Soar, just north of Leicester. He works as a community poet with a wide range of people, including pupils and teachers in schools and colleges, other writers and artists, museum services, and with people who use mental-health services.Mark has been learning to write poetry since he was 16, and during that time has developed a love of playing with language. All of his Shearsman collections reflect his deep interest in what has been termed 'landscape'-whether that be on a run-down housing estate on the rim of Leicester, in an ancient stone circle on the edge of the Hebrides, or in amongst the intricacies of Cornish coastland.
