Seeing Eye

More about the book

This a collection about looking, and seeing. Through it runs the story of the transformation of the poet's poor eyesight after cataract surgery. The poems look closely at a city by the sea, a small island, a valley in the Pennines, and at small natural daisies, woodlice, a tiny spider. They also look into stories from the history of these and other places and of the poet's family.
