Synopsis
Andrew Motion's new collection moves between private and public realms. In a series of elegiac idylls he conjures expeditionary narratives of a rural childhood - and reconsiders moments of the Victorian past. There are poems for vanished friends and public figures alike, provoking that most sensitive of concerns: what should we make public, what should be made public of us?
