Poetry

'Tremors, New and Selected Poems' is the distillation of Andrew Sant's poetry published over the last twenty-five years. Rhythmically engaging, with a passion for sensual observation, his poems shift readily from seriousness to wit, and whether about music, marine biology or Martian meteorites, they reveal a speculative, questing intelligence. Welcoming his recent shorter Selected in the United Kingdom, Christopher Reid wrote 'It's full of excellences - humane, highly intelligent, artistically delicious, witty, cliche-free.' His wide-ranging new poems explore fresh perceptual territories.
