Remarkable Occurrences

Descriere

Remarkable Occurrences is Lodge at his best finely observe moments, images to die for, and an assured tone throughout. There is nothing parochial or self-centred in this colourful and cosmopolitan collection by a poet who knows and loves his craft. The title sequence celebrates Cooks voyage into the unknown, rescuing characters and incidents from historic and cultural obscurity, but the real exploration here is of ourselves in a diversity of places and of English as a European language. A work for our times.""
