Heliopolis by Hugh Mcmillan
Heliopolis is Hugh McMillan’s sixth collection of poetry. The poems range from his kitchen table to Greece, St Petersburg and Mars. He finds the universal in the purely local and the local in the universal. Where people live, breath, hope and suffer that’s where his poetry is, as legacy, dream and testament.
Hugh McMillan is a poet from Penpont in Dumfries and Galloway. He has written five full collections of poetry and has read in events and poetry festivals worldwide. His pamphlet Postcards from the Hedge was a winner of the Callum Macdonald Prize (2009), a prize he won again with Sheep Penned in 2017. He was also a winner in the Smith Doorstep Poetry Prize and the Cardiff International Poetry Competition. In 2014 Hugh was awarded the first literature commission by the Wigtown Book Festival to create a work inspired by John Mactaggart’s The Scottish Gallovidian Encyclopaedia (1824).
