Bøger af Christopher Hopkins

The silver of spent time' - Hopkins writes in "Fractal Field," one of many haunting, and richly lyrical poems from The Rhyming Sky. The line epitomises where the beauty of this collections lies - in its dazzling depiction of moments witnessing the largesse of nature - moments in which the 'wide bone blue' of the sky transfixes, as does the peat-black wing of the geese, the flight of the 'cloud king' Gull, the bell stars which 'fall and shatter, like constellations of obsidian'. Such is the power of this poet's startling use of language, mastery of cadence and sound, that we are reminded of another Welsh poet, one who similarly cherished the sonic power of poetry, its ability to manifest nature upon the page in a vivid, tangible way. Dylan Thomas would, I am sure, be impressed by Hopkins' transcendent poems and their lush, and incantatory music. ~Anna Saunders, Poet & Founding Director Cheltenham Poetry Festival.

Hopkins opens the door for us into his world with a bang and a dragon from the first page. He walks us through small intimacies of daily life...He creates beauty with unusual imagery and also out of bittersweet and painful moments of the quotidian. Hopkins wields rhyme in unusual ways that surprise and delight, making the musicality of this book a read-aloud treasure...he is a poet for our times, and Take Your Journeys Home a book you must add to your collection.~Rachel Ikins, artist, and author of Just Two Girls the 2017 Independent Book Award Winner for Poetry

"Hopkins' signature lyrical style draws the reader into The Shape of a Tulip Bird. Within its pages he tells the story of a couple who lose a baby to miscarriage and then lose each other in their grief. With simple yet stunning accessibility he takes us on their journey and leaves us hopeful even as we wipe tears away. For anyone who has lost a child, their family members, or mental health professionals who work with those who have, this is a must-read." Rachael Ikins, poet & author of Eating the Sun and award-winning Just Two Girls.
