- Synopsis
- &“The wit and swagger&” of this collection by the celebrated Scottish poet &“belie a skill as a technician that she shares with the greats&” (Scotsman, UK). This poetry collection by Liz Lochhead features never before published work along with poems written during her time as Scots Makar—Scotland&’s national poet. They from commissioned works, such as &‘Connecting Cultures&’, written for the Commonwealth Games in 2014 to more personal works, such as &‘Favourite Place&’, about holidays in the west coast with her late husband. Throughout her career, Lochhead has been described variously as a poet, feminist-playwright, translator and broadcaster but has said that &‘when somebody asks me what I do I usually say writer. The most precious thing to me is to be a poet. If I were a playwright, I&’d like to be a poet in the theatre.&’
