Still by Christopher Meredith
Many though not all of the poems in Christopher Meredith's collection, Still, explore the web of meanings in the word 'still.' They meditate on the paradoxes of stillness and motion, on the capacity of memory and imagination to hold life apparently still and the struggle in art to achieve the power implicit in that to connect with the things of the world in a contemplative intensity. Still builds on Meredith's previous collection, Air Histories, shifting between the personal and impersonal, developing a characteristically wide range of forms, techniques, settings, and moods from quirky to serious, while increasingly an underlying coherence of vision emerges. Many of the poems feature Welsh landscapes and settings, in common with much of the author's previous work.
Christopher Meredith is the award-winning author of six volumes of fiction, including the classic Shifts and The Book of Idiots, and several poetry collections. His newest works are a poetry collection, Still, and a novel, Please, both to be released simultaneously 2021. He was born and brought up in Tredegar and lives in Brecon.
