THE NAMES OF THE SEA-TROUT. By Tom Rawling.
1993 1st edition. Small 8vo paperback (138 x 215mm). Pp64. Not illustrated. Card covers.
Poetry, mostly with an angling theme. "Names of the sea-trout, his first collection of poems for nearly ten years, confirms Rawling as a spiritual poet. Drawing on his childhood in Cumberland, his passion for trout-fishing and his relationship with his wife, he creates in these poems images that are full of resonances of a bygone era, yet are sharp, immediate and brilliantly luminous. This collection undoubtedly underlines Rawling's reputation as a thoroughly contemporary pastoral poet".
