The Star in the Branches, James Peakes second collection, is an intense and heartfelt examination of memory, how it pains and consoles, deepens and shrinks, is both equal to, and less than, the objects and people who come to reside there. At either end of the book are the disappearances of loved ones: a parent succumbing to dementia, and a school friend lost to more voluntary forms of forgetting. Elsewhere are poems of erotic love, big city loneliness, and the boon and burden of family, poems of praise in which the spiritual and the tangible are not remote but intimate. From the ancient quarries of Naxos to the electronica of Aphex Twin, these highly distinctive poems celebrate the unique wherever they find it.-- Praise for Reaction Time of Glass (2019): strikingly different from the usual because the life of the poem rests not on the occasion but on the poetical figures (simile, metaphor) which it attracts, and which project its message out into a much larger arena than a show of ironies or comfortsThe Fortnightly Review The acid, lucid visions at the heart of this terrific debut are more than capable of holding to the shape of whatever the world throws at themThe London Magazine Peakes poems show us different ways of seeingRaceme The Star in the Branches, James Peakes second collection, is an intense and heartfelt examination of memory, how it pains and consoles, deepens and shrinks, is both equal to, and less than, the objects and people who come to reside there.

ISBN 10: 1915048249 ISBN 13: 9781915048240
Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. In The Third City, his most remarkable collection to date, James Peake once more offers us his unique combination of dream-like fluency and intellectual rigour. New and returning readers will discover an even more expansive poet in these pages, one who in poem after poem uncovers our capacity to love in full knowledge of the odds.Here Peake confirms his reputation for pin-sharp and trance-like poems (Wild Court) which show us different ways of seeing (Raceme). He is a poet of deep originality whose works of artful indirection fully realise our daily world, even as they transform its familiar constraints into staging posts for larger, less comprehensible, places. In The Third City, his most remarkable collection to date, James Peake once more offers us his unique combination of dream-like fluency and intellectual rigour, and who in poem after poem uncovers our capacity to love in full knowledge of the odds.
