Living in the Delta: Collected and New Poems brings together work from nine previous collections. As a poet his work is warm, humane, intelligent and immensely readable. A brilliant comic writer who can move in an instant from sly wit to laugh-out-loud funny. Yet suddenly with a poem like "African Incident" you are in the midst of tragedy. Landeg White is a moving celebrant of love and family and community; a passionate, meticulous observer of the natural world -- a complete poet.
