Description

Backward Turning Sea is Kelvin Corcoran's first collection since 2004, exploring his deepening engagement with Greece and its rich cultural heritage. This new work weaves together ancient and modern themes, though contemporary politics can sometimes disrupt the tranquility of the subject. Corcoran's poems also reflect his fascination with the paintings of St Ives artist Roger Hilton, adding a unique visual dimension to the collection. With 115 pages of poetry, this book offers a nuanced exploration of the Mediterranean region and its enduring artistic and cultural significance.
