A collection of nature poetry by Michael Tanner who is also a member of Guildford Environmental Forum and regularly writes articles for them. The poems in this powerful collection reveal the poet's extensive knowledge of the natural world, in particular of the geology and ecology of his home territory. They share his genuine delight in the landscape and all creatures within it. However, informing most of Michael Tanner's work is his understanding of the uneasy relationship between Man and Nature. A sense of menace lurks in the background, alongside a disgust for humanity's careless attitude to Earth's other inhabitants, expressed as "our obscene Anthropocene patch of concrete".
