About this product

Product Information

The Dow Low Drop celebrates forty years of Roy Fisher's wonderfully witty and anarchic poetry. In delicate, playful excursions through a world of sense and perception, he captures the flavour of hide-and-seek reality or diffident experience. Roy Fisher's poetry is most often associated with the post-industrial landscape of the Midlands, but it is universal in its appeal. He is a keenly experimental writer who draws from situations, perceptions and emotions which go beyond time or place. His poetry's ultimate domain is the imagination. Roy Fisher is a jazz pianist as well as a writer, and there is an improvisatory freedom in the natural correspondences he uses to track life's oddities and surprises. But he is also a great pleasure-seeker. The reputation he gained in the 60s and 70s as a difficult poet is wrong: this book shows that he is one of the funniest, most open and liberating writers of his generation - another good reason to celebrate this exciting introduction to Fisher's brilliant and beautiful work. This selection draws on the full range of Roy Fisher's poetry, including classics such as The Thing About Joe Sullivan, City, A Furnace and The Dow Low Drop itself, a new sequence published here for the first time. This selection is now out of print, having been superseded by The Long and the Short of It.
