that which appears

The poems gathered in that which appears emerge from a practice of walking in the varied landscapes of the highlands and islands of Scotland. They attempt to attend and respond to the evidence, to 'snow on moss on stone', with 'small continual adjustments'.
A conviction grows that environmental damage can only begin to be repaired by many careful and repeated acts of attention. How can we move here with resourcefulness and least intrusion? Can poetry be generous in response while subject to an ethic of care for place and particularity? Can it provide spaces that will allow for, that welcome and celebrate, that which appears?
Reviews / Votes
'Clark's stripped-back poetry is a sensory delight. His terse yet concentrated lines hold a world of feeling.... There's a darkening in tone as they proceed but the real delight is in the way that Clark, using the fewest number of words, can transport you to that landscape.'Teddy Jamieson, The Herald Magazine 'Everything is so pared back, exactly the same word can take on different nuances through juxtaposition... The effect is of distillation, concentration; the pared poetics mean there is nothing superfluous.'
Stuart Kelly, The Scotsman 'This is a serious and beautiful book.'
Kathleen McPhilemy, The High Window
