R4,651 Discovery Miles 46 510 Ships in 12 - 17 working days

This collection of high-quality articles in the field of combinatorics, geometry, algebraic topology and theoretical computer science is a tribute to Jiri Matousek, who passed away prematurely in March 2015. It is a collaborative effort by his colleagues and friends, who have paid particular attention to clarity of exposition - something Jirka would have approved of. The original research articles, surveys and expository articles, written by leading experts in their respective fields, map Jiri Matousek's numerous areas of mathematical interest.

The Weather on the Moon (Paperback): Robin Thomas The Weather on the Moon (Paperback)
Robin Thomas
R233 Discovery Miles 2 330 Ships in 12 - 17 working days

Turning Manet on his head, entering the thoughts of a post prandial lion, viewing and buying a 'snorting' Hot Rod, imagining life on a modern-day Titanic, wondering what happens to the story after a book is finished or what a sonnet written by a modern day Shakespeare might look like, 'The Weather on the Moon' ranges across art, music, philosophy, literature and poetry, politics, history, science and the natural world to encounter what it's like to be alive. Bubbling away throughout this intense, sometimes humorous, sometimes quirky, always compassionate poetry is a joy in language, its possibilities, and music. As Graham Hardie writes, his work 'fuses many elements into one short space: pathos; wit; dexterous use of simile and metaphor; a heightened imagination; an ability to make poetry from the commonplace.'

Reminded of Something: Robin Thomas Reminded of Something
Robin Thomas
R238 Discovery Miles 2 380 Ships in 12 - 17 working days

In all of Robin Thomas’s work there is a subtlety and wit so contained that it invites re-reading. It takes full immersion to savour the linguistic dexterity and intelligence at work, to appreciate that humour often belies the absolute seriousness of life. In reminded of something, this balance is particularly delicate and the poignancy superbly controlled and utterly affecting. With a yearning that can only come of love and loss, the poems use the simplest of metaphors in the most lucid language to convey memories and emotions so complex and heart-breaking that they are almost beyond the scope of words—a collection that is profoundly moving and exquisitely realised.

A Distant Hum (Paperback): Robin Thomas A Distant Hum (Paperback)
Robin Thomas
R232 Discovery Miles 2 320 Ships in 12 - 17 working days

Full of wry intelligence, and a sideways perspective that digs beneath the surface of things, Robin Thomas's second collection is creative, witty and warm. Never predictable, leaning on images from art, the cadences of jazz and remarkable moments, whether from history or life, there is an unswerving pressure on language and a sense of mischief that can turn out to be unnervingly serious. This is accomplished, confident work.

Momentary Turmoil (Paperback): Robin Thomas Momentary Turmoil (Paperback)
Robin Thomas
R327 R269 Discovery Miles 2 690 Save R58 (18%) Ships in 10 - 15 working days

Arresting and intelligent, the first full collection from Robin Thomas exudes wit and warmth. Acutely observed and often wry, Momentary Turmoil abounds with both imaginative leaps and a deeply humane sensibility. 'Loud Carriage' Passengers are reminded that we have four loud carriages, B to E, where you are expected to cough, sniff and scrunch paper bags, to talk as loudly as you can and hoot with laughter at jokes which are devoid of humour. You should bellow into mobile phones, shouting details of your divorce, or why Harry, sitting two seats away, has to be sacked or that you are on the train. If you are quiet in any loud carriage you will be asked to transfer to the punishment carriage, F, where, unless you recant, you will be required to write an essay in which are elucidated the provisions of Magna Carta, write a villanelle in Latin and/or compile a report on the recent downturn in sales of guttering in Lithuania. Author Biography Robin Thomas completed the MA in Writing Poetry at Kingston University in 2012. He has had poems published in a number of journals including Agenda, Envoi, Orbis, Brittle Star, Poetry Salzburg, Poetry Scotland, Pennine Platform, The High Window, South, Stand, Rialto and The Interpreter's House. He has been shortlisted for the Buzzwords, Bridport and Bath Poetry Cafe prizes and is represented in the Stanley Spencer anthology published by Two Rivers Press in 2017. His pamphlet, A Fury of Yellow, was published by Eyewear in November, 2016. His second collection A Distant Hum was published by Cinnamon in 2021.
