"Third Wish Wasted" is a book concerned with our wishes and
desires. Belonging to a world between real and imagined folklore,
the poems are by turns celebratory, humorous and beguiling, and
there are bittersweet contemplations of youth, beauty and fame.
Roddy Lumsden is one of the liveliest and most inventive poets
writing in Britain today. His fifth collection sees him extending
the range of his poetry, straying into denser and more musical
territory, as well as sticking with the form and wit which typifies
his earlier work. In "Third Wish Wasted" he invents and tries out
various unusual and inventive forms such as charismatics, overlays
and relegated narratives. There are poems composed on a top fashion
shoot, inspired by travels in the USA and, as ever, he picks apart
the problems between men and women.
