Time to Get Here

Ian Patterson

These are poems which welcome distraction and which seem to have a lasting interest in registering and reproducing a sense of the uncanny. The strategies adopted veer between lyric mannerism and reconstructed second-hand words and, taken together, chart a lazy form of investigative political thinking through the last three decades of the twentieth century.

Praise for this book

The questions of war, civic space, and the surreal quality of everyday life command the view in this singular and eloquent work. Moreover the keen intonation of each poem via the handled delicacies of accent and stress deploys language to work some ethical discernment which is far from inconsequential.--D.S. Marriott
