Description

The Water Table by Philip Gross A powerful and ambiguous body of water lies at the heart of these poems, with shoals and channels that change with the forty-foot tide. The name itself is fluid, shifting between the Bristol Channel and the Severn Sea. Gross' meditations move with subtle steps between the natural world and the man-made landscape, the aging body and the mystery of the self. This new collection marks a crossing into a new questioning, one that brings new clarity and depth to his work. For those familiar with Gross' previous collections, this latest stage offers a fresh perspective on the themes and concerns that have always defined his poetry.
