In his bold new collection, David Morley, winner of the Ted Hughes Award, casts
off the worlds of myth and magical fable to focus on the fiercely personal.
'Love teaches you how to mind / And how to mend', he writes in 'After a Song by
Gustav Mahler'. In The Magic of What's There Morley uses his eye for precise
detail and his linguistic invention to explore childhood suffering and, in
counterbalance, the joys of love, friendship and parenthood. He finds the
elements of epic in the everyday, navigating the complex connections between
past and present selves. His poems acknowledge our capacity for cruelty, but
also for love, tenderness and mercy.
