Sarajevo Roses by Rory Waterman
Beautifully formal and engaged, this book celebrates individual, collective and European identity. From Brexit to the election-enthralled US of 2016, this collection is highly relevant and international in scope.
'Rory Waterman writes poems of the kind there'll always be a need for' - Alan Jenkins; `By just picking his words with an almost scientific exactitude he makes a poem that is meditative and unforced' - The Irish Examiner; `Waterman is at once restrained and assured. He has a fine eye for a poem's architecture, playing with symmetry, taking pleasure in the shape of the page, and he demonstrates a remarkably good ear.' - John Greening
