Author(s): David Gilbey

Poetry

A long-awaited collection from the much-admired editor of the fourW anthologies, Death and the Motorway traverses intimate and intellectual ground here and abroad with surety and insight. David Gilbey's poems are often stories full of wit and tenderness. He writes of family matters with humour, irony and delicacy. He is always original, sweetly relishing the world , its absurdities and its richness. A poet of the people, never pretentious or obscure, he has a clear voice which goes straight to the heart of the matter. - Kate Llewellyn
