Five Fifty-Five is a book of quizzical poems concerned with time and mortality which ask fundamental questions about our lives, such as Where have you gone? and Who were you anyway? In her first new collection since The Silvering (2016), Maura Dooley tries to find out through conversations with, among others, Louisa M. Alcott, Hokusai, Jane Austen, Buzz Aldrin, Anne Tyler and the Great Uncle and Grandfather she never knew. There are poems, too, about the difficulties and responsibilities of translation, both from the written word and in interpreting what is left unspoken in different kinds of absence; empty streams, bare trees, the loss of friends. Yet these are poems that find and try to offer consolation.
Dooley's first new collection since her Eliot-shortlisted Life Under Water (2008). Poems on looking in, looking out, looking through, on shifting light and what it reveals, reflects or conceals - and what remains.
Presents a comprehensive selection of poetry, including work for explaining magnetism and kissing a bone.
The Honey Gatherers takes its title from a phrase in Michael Ondaatje's The Cinnamon Peeler, a poem which describesthe need to be marked, and marked out, by love. The search, the sweetness, the sting and the death of love, are allto be found in this anthology.
