A first collection of modern haiku moments from Welsh writer Dave Lewis.
Review:
Dave Lewis is a unique voice in the poetry world. His new collection is filled with a range of vivid, often quirky, word pictures. He is adept at making every word count. Despite its brevity, the haiku is anything but an easy option - at its best, this short and fairly formal poem should make the reader look anew at an everyday event. This Dave does to perfection, for example, "Chain gangs of electricity/on the green mountain/armies marching". His haiku don't always conform to the traditional 5,7,5 syllable format - he goes his own original way, as in a favourite of mine, "Consultant's waiting room/the plant in the window/dead"... who else would have the temerity to finish on that single-beat word, dead? His thought-provoking images have some surprising last lines that take your breath away and will remain with the reader for a long time.' - Moira Andrew
