John Burnside's book is full of strange, unnerving poems that hang in the memory like a myth or a song. These are poems of thwarted love and disappointment, of raw desire, of the stalking beast; poems that recognise we have too much to gain from the gods, and this is why they fail to love us.Winner of the 2011 T.S. Eliot Prize for Poetry.Shortlisted for Forward Poetry Prize for Best Collection 2011.
