#scottishpoets — Public Fediverse posts

A nice charity bookshop find today. I stumbled on this first edition hardback of Norrie Bissell’s great wee collection of poems, Slate, Sea and Sky: A Journey from Glasgow to the Isle of Luing (Luath Press, 2007). As well as Norrie’s wonderful poetry, the book also has a vivid array of photographs by the late Oscar Marzaroli.

Looking forward to seeing Glenda Rome's documentary Expressing The Earth about Kenneth White and geopoetics. If you're in or near Edinburgh it's on at the Filmhouse on 22 April and there are a few tickets left. The trailer is really beautiful.
