Description
A powerful and ambiguous body of water lies at the heart of these poems, with shoals and channels that change with the forty-foot tide. Even the name is fluid – from one shore, the Bristol Channel, from the other Môr Hafren, the Severn Sea. A dream-like collection of poetry by Glamorgan University professor Philip Gross has won the #15,000 2009 T. S. Eliot Prize for poetry.
