Quote of the Day
Carcanet Press is our most courageous publisher. When you look at what they have brought out since their beginnings, it makes so many other houses seem timid or merely predictable.

Flying FishAntony Dunn
Imprint: OxfordPoets
Publisher: Carcanet Press Available as: Paperback (61 pages) (Pub. Mar 2002) 9781903039564 Out of Stock
The poems in Flying Fish wrestle with our fascination with the sea, our helplessness in the face of love and loss, our fear of age and all that lies beyond. In them we glimpse 'the otherlife' of things caught out of their own element. From the flying fish of the title poem to a prehistoric monster discovered on a market stall, this book is filled with characters and creatures who, for one strange moment, become more gloriously, or horribly, themselves than ever before.
Awards won by Antony Dunn
