Details
In this, his eighth collection, Landeg White takes on Mallarme’s 1891 challenge, ‘For the first time since the beginning of poetry, poets have stopped singing bass.’
Versatile in form, sensuous in language, cosmopolitan in range, White renews poetry's oldest themes. These poems are celebrations of love, language, anger, and mortality.
Landeg White was born in south Wales and lives in Portugal, having taken in along the way universities in Trinidad, Malawi, Sierra Leone, Zambia and York. His translation of Camões’s The Lusíads won the TLS Translation Prize for 1998.
