Books by Edward Ragg

The manifestations and properties of water are excitingly explored in Edward Ragg¿s new collection. Here are living poems where narrative and lyric work together to contemplate the energies implicit in water. The intriguing emphases laid upon the meanings of the word ¿present¿ give a unique edge to the poems. Glass, tears, ice, rivers, wine, salinity, tides: all these elements are woven into the texture of this collection, where the illuminations and fluidities of language are beautifully captured.¿ Penelope Shuttle
