The Book of Angels: New and Selected Poems 2000-2025 - Paperback

by Lyndon Walker (Author)

Lyndon Walker's poetry is passionately alive with imagery and language that transports readers into other worlds; ways of seeing and being that Walker

makes distinctively his own. From acute renderings of poignant autobiographical and socio-political history, to philosophical and deeply personal meditations on art, landscapes, stars, light, matter, war, love, desire, intimate relationships, and deeply felt truths, Walker's canvas is huge and varied. Here we have the world up close, in colour, pulsing with life and loving, tender close attention at every turn. The Book of Angels is filled with jewels of light and insight that linger and reverberate, offering readers profound observations on how we might live and make a life that's meaningful.
