Description
Alexander Trocchi's verse collection Man at Leisure offers a unique glimpse into the poet and novelist's writing. Spanning several decades, the poems showcase Trocchi's lyrical style in his early love poetry, as well as his sharp commentary on contemporary figures and events in later pieces. Trocchi's language is known for its strength, richness, and frankness, making for a thought-provoking read. This collection features an introduction by William S. Burroughs and a new preface by John Calder, providing valuable context to Trocchi's work. Published for the first time in 1972, Man at Leisure forms a notable addition to Trocchi's published body of work, offering insight into one of Scotland's finest writers of the twentieth century.
