Publisher Description: Poetry. There is an obstinately tender patience in these poems, a care that hears the sounds of words still as the fact of human voices. In a world of increasing abstraction, such solidness is a great and generous blessing-Robert Creeley. It is Caddel's ability to see the infinite in lakes and woods and/ maggots in apples/ small blue// flower by the/ path (Baltic Coast VI: Continuous Present), coupled with his care and subtlety in drawing it out, that give the poems in LARKSONG SIGNAL their own particular luminosity. LARKSONG SIGNAL is Richard Caddel's third major collection, following SWEET CICELY and UNCERTAIN TIME. He is the founder of Pig Press and is Co-Director of the Basil Bunting Poetry Centre at the University of Durham.
