Description

Maurice Scully's latest collection, Airs, showcases the poet at the height of his powers. With a mesmerising capacity to transform ordinary words into fresh and evocative language, Scully presents a unique achievement in modern poetry. This new work explores the relationship between composition and reception, examining how these two processes are intertwined within the realm of experimental poetry. The result is an extended investigation that raises important questions about the nature of genre and artistic expression. Airs is a meticulously planned and sectioned work, featuring parallelism, doubling back, intersections, and loops that create a complex and engaging reading experience.
