Ian Duhig's effortlessly fascinating and endlessly quotable verse
has had a shaping influence on UK poetry for more than thirty
years. This eclectic gathering of Duhig's best work draws on
material from his acclaimed debut, The Bradford Count, to the
present day: the book collects a number of fine new pieces,
including an elegy for the late Ciaran Carson. Duhig is
contemporary poetry's social historian; he has wise and powerful
things to say about the relationship between community and family,
racism and justice, place and folklore, music and language. For
Duhig fans, the book will offer a mesmerising retrospective of the
career one of our most highly regarded poets; for those yet to
discover him, New and Selected Poems represents a marvellous
introduction to a radical social conscience, an archivist of
strange tales, and one of the most skilful writers now at work.
