The two searching sequences that bookend this collection are not so
much elegies as unfinished conversations with friends no longer
living - friendships lost or neglected, with their closeness and
distances sensitively mapped. This is Philip Gross's writing at its
most hospitable, lit up by a sense of personal address, both
tactful and deeply engaged. The sea that is always in sight,
between us and beyond us, is more than a metaphor. It is another
conversation - with the real sea of this planet, used and abused
and in need of our care. Between the Islands is Philip Gross's 26th
book of poetry, and his 11th from Bloodaxe.
