Whether she is observing coastal resorts out of season, lovers in a restaurant or disparate train journeys, she captures the bittersweet isolation of the lyric moment. Her characteristically painterly eye for colour, tone and form is balanced with erotic encounters as well as powerful narratives exploring loss, threat and betrayal.","brand":"WoB","offers":[{"title":"GB \/ VERY_GOOD \/ INTERNAL","offer_id":49552920936721,"sku":"GOR003504124","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0784\/4072\/6801\/files\/1844712915.jpg?v=1751420575"},{"product_id":"lookout-book-tamar-yoseloff-9780995625006","title":"Lookout","description":null,"brand":"WoB","offers":[{"title":"GB \/ VERY_GOOD \/ INTERNAL","offer_id":49636801249553,"sku":"GOR012498747","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0784\/4072\/6801\/files\/099562500X.jpg?v=1750749852"},{"product_id":"sweetheart-book-tamar-yoseloff-9781871033472","title":"Sweetheart","description":null,"brand":"WoB","offers":[{"title":"GB \/ VERY_GOOD \/ INTERNAL","offer_id":49652812906769,"sku":"GOR004454140","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"GB \/ GOOD \/ INTERNAL","offer_id":52969799614737,"sku":"GOR004127029","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0784\/4072\/6801\/files\/1871033470.jpg?v=1751444969"},{"product_id":"formula-for-night-book-tamar-yoseloff-9781781722688","title":"A Formula for Night","description":"This book includes dazzling new work as well as selections from Yoseloff's print collections and pieces from collaborations with artists. The title poem was commissioned by the Hayward Gallery for their 2013 exhibition Light Show and is based on an installation by the Welsh artist Cerith Wyn Evans a meditation on the space between heaven and earth. The poems in this collection are also concerned with heavenly presences, as well as evil spirits, explorations of light and dark. As well as the title piece, many other poems are informed by the work of visual artists, such as David Harker, Alison Gill, Susan Collis and Fred Sandback.","brand":"WoB","offers":[{"title":"GB \/ VERY_GOOD \/ INTERNAL","offer_id":49664565575953,"sku":"GOR008286164","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"GB \/ GOOD \/ INTERNAL","offer_id":53366068936977,"sku":"GOR014881449","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0784\/4072\/6801\/files\/1781722684.jpg?v=1750832934"},{"product_id":"room-to-live-in-book-tamar-yoseloff-9781844714209","title":"A Room to Live In","description":"A Room to Live In is a celebration of a unique place in British art. Kettle's Yard was the Cambridge home of Jim Ede, the visionary collector and curator, who opened his doors to generations of students and art lovers.

Edited by Tamar Yoseloff, with a Foreword by Michael Harrison, Director of Kettle's Yard, and an Introduction by Tamar Yoseloff.

Tamar Yoseloff is a gifted contrarian: she eschews the sentimental, embraces alternatives, is always offering us antidotes to cheery capitalist hype. But there is a sort of dark grandeur to her view of mortality, one that matches the sublime desert painting of the same name by Georgia O’Keeffe which inspires the title poem. The central sequence in this collection is ‘Cuts’ which is a characteristically tough look at the poet’s cancer diagnosis and treatment: “The consultant says ‘carcinoma’ – the word a missile…”. The diagnosis arrives at the same time as the Grenfell Tower fire disaster, a public trauma overshadowing a private one. These poems focus on the strangeness of the illness, they refuse to offer panaceas or consolations. There are also some formally inventive ‘redacted’ poems that are blacked-out except for key words that float ominously within their depths.","brand":"WoB","offers":[{"title":"GB \/ NEW \/ GARDNERS","offer_id":49738977247505,"sku":"NGR9781781725597","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"GB \/ VERY_GOOD \/ INTERNAL","offer_id":50235259486481,"sku":"GOR010800279","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"GB \/ WELL_READ \/ INTERNAL","offer_id":50554604028177,"sku":"GOR013992262","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0784\/4072\/6801\/files\/1781725594.jpg?v=1751437783"},{"product_id":"belief-systems-book-tamar-yoseloff-9781913437923","title":"Belief Systems","description":"The poems in Tamar Yoseloff's Belief Systems act as a call to make something worthwhile from the wreckage of our world, in the spirit of the radical artists she evokes, such as John Latham, John Cage and Robert Rauschenberg – visionaries who located power and beauty in what is forgotten.

Alive with decay and regrowth, this collection leads us through a movement of seasons, along wild pathways and through stormy weather, finding places of transformation where nature, music and art thrive at the margins.

His tumultuous life and his revolutionary vision provide the storyline for the main sequence of poems in The City with Horns, Tamar Yoseloff's fourth collection, in which Yoseloff plays ventriloquist to the voices of Pollock; his wife, the painter Lee Krasner; and his mistress, Ruth Kligman (who survived the car crash that killed him). The characters of James Dean, Frank O'Hara and William de Kooning are also woven into the narrative. And it is Pollock's dictum that provides the departure point for other poems which chart the attempt to find hidden meanings - whether through driving blind on a road at night, reading James Joyce in a Japanese restaurant, or gazing at a concrete wall. In The City with Horns, you will find journeys through the poet's adopted city of London and through turbulent weather, on trains, into fields that conjure up the past, and around junk yards where treasure can be found. This is Yoseloff's most challenging collection to date.","brand":"WoB","offers":[{"title":"GB \/ VERY_GOOD \/ INTERNAL","offer_id":50018903556369,"sku":"GOR005956989","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"GB \/ GOOD \/ INTERNAL","offer_id":51683003171089,"sku":"GOR005516890","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0784\/4072\/6801\/files\/B0092G6OU8.jpg?v=1750802239"},{"product_id":"belief-systems-book-tamar-yoseloff-9781913437924","title":"Belief Systems","description":"The poems in Tamar Yoseloff's Belief Systems act as a call to make something worthwhile from the wreckage of our world, in the spirit of the radical artists she evokes, such as John Latham, John Cage and Robert Rauschenberg – visionaries who located power and beauty in what is forgotten.
