Synopsis
In these taut, sharp poems written mainly over the past decade, Daniel Weissbort has developed a new way of looking at himself and at the world. Experience, memory, dreams and ordinary life supply the poems with rich and varied subjects. The result is an alert, intelligent, open poetry whose surface lightness belies the power of its material. Plain yet intimate in tone, the poems work with the wit and concision of epigram.

Review
'It's hard to imagine how anything could be more natural, relaxed and true to the writer's self, true to his secret, personal life, than Daniel Weissbort's poems' - Ted Hughes
