Though still in his mid-twenties Jacob Polley is already in possession of a remarkably mature talent. Formally graceful, but unself-conscious, his poems come at the reader from all angles, wholly alive to the unique possibilities of their subjects - the sea, the land, the home, the very brink of things.
This debut collection gives us the first opportunity to see his transforming imagination in action, where a jar of honey becomes ''... the sun, all flesh and no bones / but for the floating knuckle / of the honeycomb / attesting to the nature of the struggle''.
