Human Form by Oliver Dixon
Both human and humane, Oliver Dixon's debut collection maps a city and its inhabitants - from starlings and plane trees to a Stockhausen-listening street cleaner. But Human Form is as much a reflection on an interior world on the cusp of change; a search for form, combining elegantly crafted lyrics with prose poetry and fractured texts.
Oliver Dixon's poetry stubbornly resists easy solutionsIt is a poetry hard worked at and finely finished. It feels sharp and fresh, all perceptions cleansed. This may be a first book, but it is a first book blessed with poise, confidence and maturity. - Michael Glover A remarkably assured debut, quietly meditative but at turns leporine in its power to transform our place in everyday world. - James Byrne
