- Book Synopsis
- M is the third collection from Antony Rowland, Professor of Modern and Contemporary Poetry at Manchester Metropolitan University, whose work has been compared with poets as disparate as John Ashbery and Ezra Pound. Jeffrey Wainwright has described his poetry as "significant and powerful", and nowhere is this more apparent than in M, an ode to Manchester in the present moment and to the world it finds itself in, awash with the movement of peoples, cultures, politics and words.
- About The Author
- Antony Rowland has published three poetry collections: The Land of Green Ginger (Salt, 2008), I Am a Magenta Stick (Salt, 2012) and M (Arc, 2017). His poems were included in Roddy Lumsden's anthology Identity Parade: New British and Irish Poets (Bloodaxe, 2010). Rowland received an Eric Gregory Award from the Society of Authors in 2000, and he was awarded the Manchester Poetry Prize in 2012. He was invited to record work for the UK Poetry Archive in 2009, and the Lyrikline (Germany) in 2014. The Dutch government elected him as a UK poetry 'ambassador' for 2016: his poetry was read on national television, and shown on screens at Schipol airport and Amsterdam Central Station. In 2018, 'Newark' from M was shortlisted for the Forward Prize for Best Single Poem, and was published in The Forward Book of Poetry 2019. Peter Riley has described his work in The Fortnightly Review as 'an original and thoughtful handling of a major European modernist mode.'
