Full Volume Zusammenfassung

Full Volume Robert Crawford

Holding in balance the ecological and the technological, ancient and modern, Full Volume sings languages and cultures, people and habitats burgeoning on the brink of extinction. From revved-up battle-cry to nervous whisper, these lyrical poems praise intricate abundance.

Assured in its rhymes and cadences, Full Volume is often attentive to poetry in other tongues, not least Gaelic. As their tones and forms shift from the spiritual to the wry, from haiku to brosnachadh, the poems' resonance and music build into a sustained sounding of what it means to live, love, and listen in a world where 'Nothing is ever single'.

Full Volume Bewertungen

A poet of great importance... fluent, inventive, funny, crackling with intellectual energy and at the very heart of our own time -- Iain Crichton Smith * Scotsman *
Robert Crawford is one of the most distinctive of these new virtuosi. A gifted critic as well as a poet, he relishes the language game, but also keeps a grasp on more emotionally challenging matters -- Carol Rumens * Independent *
Intelligent, witty, funny... These fine, acute poems, full of tight creases of meaning and sharp twists of language, show us better than most new fiction what is being lost and found every day in contemporary Scotland -- James Wood * Guardian *
One of the most distinctive voices in contemporary Scottish literature -- Keith Bruce * Herald *
