Quote of the Day
Carcanet has always been the place to look for considerations of purely literary and intellectual merit. Its list relies on the vision and the faith and the energy of people who care about books, and values. It is thus as rare as it is invaluable.

Doctor Honoris CausaMarius Kociejowski
Imprint: Anvil Press Poetry
Publisher: Carcanet Press Available as: Paperback (64 pages) (Pub. Nov 1993) 9780856462511 Out of Stock
Two ambitious monologues form the core of Marius Kociejowski’s first book: ‘Doctor Honoris Causa’ and ‘Giacomo Leopardi in Naples’. These and his shorter poems, including the sequence ‘The Wolf Month’, reveal a poet with a fine lyrical and narrative talent, a gift for historical empathy, and a voice entirely his own.
Awards won by Marius Kociejowski
Winner, 1991 Cheltenham Prize for Coast
Praise for Marius Kociejowski
'Difficulty has its own rewards in Kociejowski, whose careful orchestrations of language open up unexpected delights for the reader... These wonderful poems might serve as an antidote to the dumbing-down of modern life.'
Ian Thomson, The Catholic Herald |
