Fourth collection by winner of the Forward Prize for Best First Collection: poems confronting strange interconnections and anxieties of the early 21st century, tuning into what is out of range in deep time, including many relating to climate change and other environmental concerns.
Perfect for fans of Robert Harris, Wilbur Smith and Bernard Cornwell, this is breathtaking and atmospheric historical historical mystery set in Ancient Egypt from bestselling author Nick Drake.
These brutal acts are destabilizing a ruthless regime already unstable thanks to corruption and the appalling divide between rich and poor. Meanwhile, Tutankhamun, at 18, has inherited an empire that should be at the height of power and glory.
Written by an award-winning author of "The Man in the White Suit", this work explores the different meanings and implications which are packed into that small word - from departures on journeys in this world and beyond it, through expulsions from homes, places and relationships, to the possibilities of adventure and discovery.
Success will bring glory - but if he fails, he and his young family will die... Closely based on historical research, NEFERTITI tells the hidden story of the crimes, mysteries and secrets of the dark game of power played out against the vast panorama of a society in revolution.
Poems inspired by a journey to the High Arctic, calling up voices from across the Arctic past - explorers, whalers, mapmakers, scientists, financiers, the famous and the forgotten - as well as attempting to give voice to the confronting mysteries of the Arctic.
Here is an exiled poet in an English seaside asylum, a winter night spent in the spooky penthouse suite of Ceausescu's vanished daughter, and a scientist trying to calculate the heart's square root. Londoner Nick Drake's debut collection portrays and celebrates a richly varied cast of characters. "He deserves careful attention as one of the poets likeliest to maintain England's ever-transshifting but still splendid poetic tradition."--Harvard Review
Hun bliver kaldt Den Perfekte – den smukkeste kvinde i det gamle Egypten. Sammen med sin mand Akhenaten regerer dronning Nefertiti det mest magtfulde og sofistikerede rige, verden nogensinde har set. Et rige der strækker sig fra Afrika til Mellemøsten.Men en magtkamp truer bag kulisserne, da Nefertiti og Akhenaten indfører en ny oplysende religion og bygger en storslået hovedstad for at hylde solguden. Troen på de gamle guder bliver bandlyst, uroen vokser blandt folket, og præstestyret mister sin fremtrædende position. Gamle alliancer smuldrer, generationer af nedarvet magt og rigdom bliver sat på vippen, og magtbalancen tipper.Og så – bare få dage før den nye by skal fejres med et brag af en fest – forsvinder Nefertiti. Den unge politimand Rai Rahotep får til opgave at efterforske sagen, men han har kun ti dage til at finde dronningen og bringe hende hjem, inden festlighederne kan begynde. Hvis det lykkes, vil han blive belønnet, men hvis han fejler, vil det koste ham dyrt…
