Over the Moon - Queen's Gold Medal for Poetry

Opis
Winner of the Queen's Gold Medal for Poetry 2014
Shortlisted for the Ted Hughes Award for New Work in Poetry 2014
Imtiaz Dharker was born in Pakistan, grew up a Muslim Calvinist in a Lahori household in Glasgow, was adopted by India and married into Wales. Her main themes are drawn from a life of transitions: childhood, exile, journeying, home, displacement, religious strife and terror, and latterly, grief. She is also an accomplished artist, and all her collections are illustrated with her drawings, which form an integral part of her books.
Over the Moon is her fifth book from Bloodaxe. These are poems of joy and sadness, of mourning and celebration: poems about music and feet, church bells, beds, cafe tables, bad language and sudden silence. In contrast with her previous work written amidst the hubbub of India, these new poems are mostly set in London, where she has built a new life with - and since the death of - her husband Simon Powell.
'an incredibly poignant, heart-breaking account of grief, loss, renewal and moving on; the illustrations work with the poems in really surprising and beautiful ways.' --Helen Mort, on Over the Moon, Radio 4's World at One
'...poems that wound and sear the mind while also allowing an exorcism of the trappings of loss.' - Hayden Murphy, Glasgow Herald
'Set mainly in London, these poems can be as exuberant and as dark as the capital itself, and one of them includes the best line ever written about this uneasy, riparian foundation on the Thames.' - Nicholas Crane, Best Books, The Week [on Over the Moon]
