Liz Lochhead

No reviews yet Write a Review
This is the first collected poems of Scotland's second makar, after Edwin Morgan, with new poems. Lochhead's work is refreshing, with a feminist agenda often plain to see, it is a particularly good introduction for those who shy away from poetry.

Description  

Liz Lochhead is one of the leading poets writing in Britain today. Her debut collection, Memo for Spring (1972), was a landmark publication. Writing at a time when the landscape of Scottish poetry was male dominated, hers was a fresh, new voice, tackling subjects that resonated with readers - as it still does. Her poetry paved the way, and inspired, countless new voices including Ali Smith, Kathleen Jamie, Jackie Kay and Carol Ann Duffy.

Still writing and performing today, more than fifty years on from her first book of poetry, Liz Lochhead has been awarded the Queen's Gold Medal for Poetry and was Scotland's second modern Makar, succeeding Edwin Morgan.
