These poems are distilled from decades of living, reading, thinking and feeling. They have an intelligence and tigerish grace that can only be achieved by a poet who has taken on, in every way, the hard work of writing. Here readers will encounter a dung-beetle Dante who pitches his swag at the foot of the mountain; lucid and powerful grappling with the endless strangeness of our embodiment; sane and wry poems on the inescapable absurdities of what is briefly our present day; and sharp, aphoristic lines that remind me powerfully of Blake's 'Proverbs of Hell'. This is a book with a rare depth of humanity and spirit that bears witness to its writer's fearless perceptiveness, and which always carries itself with compassion and wit. - Graeme Miles\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Mal McKimmie\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 192578097X\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781925780970\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Puncher \u0026amp; Wattmann\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 04\/01\/2021\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 94\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.33lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.00h x 6.00w x 0.23d","brand":"Mal McKimmie","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":46199173841151,"sku":"9781925780970","price":16.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_4d5a023c-5807-47f3-89ff-093d16963faa.jpg?v=1727925263","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/at-the-foot-of-the-mal-mckimmie-9781925780970","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
