Description

Harry Ricketts has written and edited more than thirty books, but it is his poetry that has been the most constant, and the most personal in tone. From his 1989 collection Coming Here - in which he wrote the first of his 'Secret Life' poems - to his 2018 collection Winter Eyes, which reviewer Tim Upperton called 'unsettling, moving, both estranging and empathetic', Ricketts has written of friendship, youth, romance, loss, and the small moments that carry a lifelong weight, or light, within us. His voice is recognisable for its humility, intelligence and warmth. In Selected Poems, its full range is represented for the first time.
