Sobre este artículo
Manchester: Carcanet Press, 1997. 1st Edition 1st Printing. Soft cover. Fine/No jacket - as issued. 22 x 14 cms (8.5" x 5.5"). Adolf Wolfli (cover). THE BOOK: 'A Voyage', broadcast on BBC radio 4 in 1996, opened new possibilities on the air as it does on the page. Scotland's Poet Laureate Edwin Morgan takes a cinematic risk, evoking the journey of the human sperm from ejaculation to fertilisation. 'A Voyage' belongs with his poems of space exploration, celebrating the chanciness and heroism of this primal risk, and with his poetry of science. Like 'The Five-Pointed Star', written for the Burns Bicentenary Tommy Smith. It shows how commissioned poetry can honour and transcend its occasion. The title sequence of fifty triplet poems considers the consequences to reality of notions of 'virtual reality'. Once again, Morgan displays his passion for language, place and real people alive in a modern world that merits celebration. PUBLISHING DETAILS: A hard to find signed first edition, published in softback format by Carcanet Press of Manchester in 1997. 101 pages. Size: 22 x 14 cms (8.5" x 5.5"). Weight: 152g (0.34 pounds). CONDITION: I would rate this as fine. It is pretty well as new.
