Description
A Whistling of Birds by Isobel Dixon is a collection of poetry that explores the natural world and our place within it. Drawing inspiration from various writers and makers, including D.H. Lawrence, Emily Dickinson, and Georgia O'Keeffe, Dixon's poems are lyrical and inventive, yet also convey a sense of vulnerability and complexity. The book features Douglas Robertson's finely detailed images, which complement the poet's work in exploring the beauty and wonder of the natural world. With its range of subjects and themes, from the smallest northern flowers to the majestic whale, A Whistling of Birds is a collection that flexes with energy, yet invites the reader into its quiet, reflective heart. Isobel Dixon's writing is marked by a fierce sense of landscape, humour, tenderness, and exactitude. Her poems are memorable for their ability to marry emotion with precise observation, making this a compelling read for those interested in poetry and the natural world.
