David Scott(Bloodaxe Books, 2014), drew on his four previous Bloodaxe titles, with the addition of a whole collection of new poems.
'He is interested in the humble epiphanies associated with weathered objects and places: he seizes on the apparently insignificant but his sensual expansions are religious in tone. Quietly Scott's poems look out beyond themselves.' - George Szirtes, Critical Quarterly 'Immaculate poems - full of gentle, contemplative intelligence and a tenacious modesty - scrupulous, affectionate' - John Mole, Encounter. 'David Scott writes poems plain as pleasure: a pleasure in perception of the world, a pleasure in being human - There is one poem in this fine collection that really lets all the weather in, the epic and panoptic Skelling Michael: A Pilgrimage - the terrors of faith are made real and electric but, importantly, they are made human.' - David Morley, PN Review.
