Full Blood: Salt Modern Poets

Autor JOHN SIDDIQUE
en Limba Engleză Paperback – 31 mar 2011
"Full Blood" is John Siddique's fourth full-length collection of poems for adults. Erotic, physical, completely open and fully engaged with the mortal urgency of life, Siddique tackles his themes robustly and yet with great sensitivity, constantly defining and reimagining what it is to be a man in today's world, living fully in the moment. Marking a serious development in the writer's work (as well as the mind of this significant British poet) this is Siddique's most emotionally-charged work to date.

Recenzii

Siddique's new poetry collection contains powerful reflections on love, loss, war, peace and alternative modes of living for these days of financial and political turmoil. In one sequence, The Knife, he discusses racism in northern England; in another, Reclaiming the Body, love and sex are described with tender honesty. Technically virtuosic yet direct and sensual, this is a collection I keep returning to. -- Claire Chambers Times Higher Education Supplement
