The Lovely Disciplines by Martyn Crucefix

Seren is thrilled to be publishing the new collection by Martyn Crucefix, widely acknowledged as one of the UK’s finest poets. The Lovely Disciplines is full of elegantly crafted, intriguing poems. The ‘disciplines’ of the title turn out to encompass many of the manifestations of human love: of a child, a partner, of aging parents, of the world.
Martyn Crucefix has won numerous prizes including a major Eric Gregory award and a Hawthornden Fellowship. He has published 7 collections of poetry including Hurt (Enitharmon, 2010): “an exceptional ear . . . superbly intelligent . . . urgent, heartfelt, controlled and masterful.” (Kathryn Maris, Poetry London). His translation of Rilke’s Duino Elegies (Enitharmon, 2006) was shortlisted for the Popescu Prize for European Poetry Translation and hailed as “unlikely to be bettered for very many years” (Magma). His translation of Rilke’s The Sonnets to Orpheus appeared from Enitharmon in 2012. His translations of Rainer Maria Rilke and the Daodejing, appeared in 2016.
