Haunt; Mark Granier (Salmon Poetry)

Haunt unfolds in tender, observant gestures. There is much sadness here regarding personal memory, death, and a sense of generations passing. This makes for an elegiac collection but Granier's elegies are not made of pieties. They are spiced with wit and live on their precisions. The sequences in the book are accumulations of what it is to be human, vulnerable, sharp-eyed, and a part of things.-George Szirtes. Mark Granier has been awarded the New Writer Poetry Prize, the Vincent Buckley Poetry Prize, and a Patrick and Katherine Kavanagh Fellowship.
