Böcker av Will Burns

Praise for Will Burns'Will Burns is a soulful English poet of the kind we don't make enough of. Fiercely intelligent, sensitive to the tiniest nuances of politics or history, attentive to the light and shade of human relationships, constantly addressing ideas of landscape and place with gentle, warm introspection. He is a poet of the unglamorous artificial English homelands, honest about class, memory, unease and experience in a way that few contemporary writers are. He doesn't try and sound clever in the line, he shows across his whole body of work that he is truly wise' Max Porter 'Only a poet as talented as Will Burns could guide us through the landscape of a transformed Britain and reveal with such vivid language its complexity, cruelty and beauty' Craig Taylor 'Will Burns is the new Defoe' Adelle Stripe 'Finally here is a writer who captures the psychology and topography of these weird market towns and villages where I grew up . . . In Will's writing I get a real sense of an emerging discussion about what it is to be English and a man in the 21st century' Luke Turner '[Will Burns] offers a portrait of contemporary England and Englishness which manages to be critical and empathetic all at once' Will Ashon
