"Birthmarks" is Imlah's first collection of poems. Many are extended narratives whose themes are class, pretension, sexual self-deception and daily betrayals. The narrators include an aspiring Cockney, a deranged zoologist, a feckless racist and an unlucky foetus. Mick Imlah is a regular reviewer for the TLS. From 1983 to 1986 he was editor of "Poetry Review". He now works as an editor on "Departures" magazine. Some of his poems have been published in the TLS, "The Observer" and elsewhere.
"Synopsis" may belong to another edition of this title.
