In this sparkling debut, Matthew Hollis immerses us in the
undercurrents of our lives. Love and loss are buoyed by a house
full of milk, an orchard underwater, the laws of walking on water.
Rainwater, floodwater, flux - the liquid landscapes which shift
relentlessly in Ground Water - threaten and comfort by turns.
Matthew Hollis's poems are brimming with courage in adversity as
well as the promise of renewal, culminating in a powerful sequence
about a father's struggle with terminal illness. Ground Water is a
startling first collection from a remarkable new poet. Shortlisted
for the Guardian First Book Award (the first time for a poetry
book), Whitbread Poetry Award and Forward Prize for Best First
Collection. Poetry Book Society Recommendation.
