Description
Andrew Motion's New and Selected Poems 1977-2022 This comprehensive collection brings together Andrew Motion's distinguished body of work from his earliest volumes to his most recent, including previously uncollected poems. A poet deeply concerned with the human experience, Motion explores the ways in which our lives are shaped by loss, war, accident, time and grief. Through intimate and lyric forms, as well as direct speech and documentary sources, Motion reflects on the vulnerabilities of the world at large. His poetry is marked by a sense of urgency and personal witness, as seen in powerful works such as 'Essex Clay'. This new edition offers a unique opportunity to engage with Motion's remarkable body of work. With 240 pages of poetry, this hardback edition provides a substantial introduction to Andrew Motion's oeuvre, and a valuable addition to any poetry collection.
