Publisher Description: With each successive collection Andrew Waterman extends his themes and forms, including more and more of the visible and audible world, finding new ways of expressing the music and the laughter. "The End of the Pier Show" contains lyrics, elegies, satirical and reflective poems. It ventures into the personal and historical past and finds ways of expressing nostalgia without sentimentality. Waterman illuminates the animal world and the world of human creatures in love, in grief, in parenthood. |
