About this product

Product Information

In a verse sequence that swoops between wit and ancient wisdom, between the mystical and the mischievous, award-winning novelist Lindsay Clarke elucidates the trickster nature of Hermes, the messenger god of imagination, language, dreams, travel, theft, tweets, and trading floors, who is also the presiding deity of alchemy and the guide of souls into the otherworld. Taking a fresh look at some classical myths, this vivacious dance with Hermes choreographs ways in which, as an archetype of the poetic basis of mind, the sometimes disreputable god remains as provocative as ever in a world that worries - among other things - about losing its iPhone, what happens after death, online scams, and the perplexing condition of its soul. Foreword by Jules Cashford.

Reviews
'Clarke brings his considerable erudition and love of language to allow the intellectual and the poetic mind to come together, imagining where and how Hermes might be concealed in everyday life - the whisper in the inner ear, the sudden silence when "the air hangs watchful," or "the fitful flare that lights our way."' Jules Cashford 'This is an impressive collection, with an ancient and perennial wisdom, and language that is modern, even "street-wise" without being cheap. I admire the range of contemporary reference; the "voice" of these poems suggests a real freedom of mind, and expresses a live imagination.' Jeremy Hooker 'Deft, witty, wing-footed - Lindsay Clarke's poems wonderfully embody what they describe: the god Hermes, who is comprehensively shown to be just as revelatory and double-dealing in the digital age as he ever was in antiquity.'
