Selected Poems Of Mick Imlah Av Mick Imlah

<p>Mick Imlah''s second and long-awaited collection <i>The Lost Leader</i> 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, <i>Birthmarks</i> (1988), but also including uncollected poems and previously unpublished work. <br><br><i>The Lost Leader</i> 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 <i>Selected Poems</i> 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.</p>
