Books by Claire Crowther

Solar Cruise is Claire Crowther's fourth collection. Her first collection, Stretch of Closures, was shortlisted for the Aldeburgh Best First Collection prize. Solar Cruise is a love story of a poet and a physicist who is devoted to halting climate change through solar energy. It is a passionately personal but also political work.

The design of a coin is an act of succinct aggrandisement. Bare George explores the coinage of power through a far more famous numismatic image: created in 1817 for King George III and his son, the Prince Regent, by Benedetto Pistrucci, it pictures young St. George lancing a dragon.

A collection of poems that combines a control of rhetoric with myth-making skill. It includes figures such as the yellow-furred thike and its human cousin, or the countrywoman who answers the call of Maleficence.

Features lyric poems containing an array of characters that personify twenty-first century language, found on adverts, shopfronts, train tickets.
