The Burning Circus - E-book - ePub

Divided into three linked sections, Mark Sheeky's astonishing new collection takes us on a journey, via a 'fragile caravan of dreams', in which the passing scenery is seen as if through a distorting mirror; a journey whose twists, turns and destination are wholly unexpected. In images so tactile you half expect the greasepaint to come off on your fingers, this is language, from one of our finest poets, that dazzles without attempting to disguise the grit of sawdust beneath the sparkle.
Fully illustrated with ink drawings, and featuring a foreword by former Cheshire Poet Laureate, John Lindley, The Burning Circus is a reflection of modern society seen through the lens of carnival characters.
