Poetry Rebellion by Paul Evans
Life is the 21st century is laden with challenges from the climate emergency to extreme politics. However, in this inspired anthology of poems, voices around the world use the power of the written word to make us stand up, rebel and ignite change.'This anthology is part manifesto for change, part elegy for a burning house, part summoning of an 'inner wild'But it's also a book of timeless, irrepressible, rebel song. Jean Binta Breeze sings to William Blake, Selima Hill sings to Theodore Roethke and Nan Shepherd. Each song echoes, each chimes. As Paul Evans says in his introduction 'poetry is a quality of language as wild is a quality of nature'. Poetry Rebellion is essential.'
* Helen Mort *‘Galvanises us to notice and care about our glorious natural world, through the words of an army of poets, ancient and modern’
