Descriere magazin:
"In his refreshing, clean lines Goodwin combines humour and close observation with hope for a future that inevitably involves departure from this life on earth." - Sevak Edward Gulbekian, author of In the Belly of the Beast " Manning Goodwin \'s poems are insightful meditations about the dilemmas of modern daily life with a deeply felt spiritual foundation. They address philosophically, with honesty and wit, the dichotomy of inner turbulence and a contented quotidian surface." - Nomi Rowe, author of In Celebration of Cecil Collins: Visionary Artist and Educator "Goodwin\'s collection reads like a memoir on mortality, taking us inside a liminal space where vignettes of everyday life - reading, having the boiler fixed - jostle with Cicero and salmon, poisoned figs, goldmines, Afghan ponies and Chinese seas. From the opening line, \'Memories of missing people\', Manning\'s writing feels as urgent as it is oneiric; death, like the \'chaps in caps\', is never far from the poet\'s thoughts as he gently oscillates between acceptance, humour and thoughts of the beyond, imbued at times with a poignant fatalism (\'They took away my flame yet let me live\'). In one poem, he writes of making a mistake when planning his tombstone (\'a five instead of twenty-five thus lopping off a score of years\'), while his study of the belladonna plant weaves ancient tales into the plight of modern hearts. The poems flow around gentle structures; strong iambic rhythms are particularly effective in \'Sockeye Salmon\' (\'We jump the falls that thunder down /We feed both bear and man, surviving\'). A dialogue with death, in which every word feels warmly and purposefully alive." - Holly Dawson, Writer & Editor
