His career, mapped across his six collections of poetry, ten pamphlets, as well as a monograph and several critical articles, spans a period rich with poetic innovation and change. Echoes from the work of the Imagists, Black Mountain poets, Language poets, British Poetry Revival poets, and 'radical landscape' poets resonate in a wholly new kind of verse, ecological and religious, scarce and abundant, oblique and material.\" - E.J.

He does not see 'nature' as providing a straightforward sense of belonging, or of nurture. What is available to us is more like a hint of something given but only scarcely, something which remains beyond our reach or comprehension.\" - Simon Collings\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBinding Type:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Shearsman Books\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 03\/14\/2025\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781848619739\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 98\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.31lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.00h x 6.00w x 0.23d","brand":"Peter Larkin","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":45419018944693,"sku":"9781848619739","price":17.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0473\/0804\/6492\/files\/img_226b8634-3128-4f47-a6ee-8fcb48f0998b.jpg?v=1748390632","url":"https:\/\/pastforward.org\/products\/scarcely-carry-all-vast-woods-9781848619739","provider":"Past Forward","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
