Mick Imlah's second and long-awaited collection "The Lost Leader" was published to acclaim in 2008, shortly before his early death in January 2009. This title connects the work of three decades, drawing upon Imlah's earlier full-length collection, "Birthmarks" (1988), but also including uncollected poems and previously unpublished work. |
| Synopsis: |
Mick Imlah's second and long-awaited collection "The Lost Leader" was published to acclaim in 2008, shortly before his early death in January 2009. The present retrospect connects the work of three decades, drawing upon Imlah's earlier full-length collection, "Birthmarks" (1988), but also including uncollected poems and previously unpublished work. "The Lost Leader" won the Forward Prize and revealed a poet of dazzling virtuosity, eloquence and subtlety - breaking through, as Imlah said of Edwin Muir (whose poems he selected in his last year) 'to a field of unforced imaginative fluency and an unexpected common cause'. Edited by Mark Ford and with an essay by Alan Hollinghurst, the "Selected Poems" brings together the best work of a poet who can now be seen, with increasing clarity, as a 'lost leader' of Scottish poetry in our time. |
