Brain'S Diseases Of The Nervous Systems

Conjure is Michael Donaghy's third collection, and his most accomplished to date, displaying the same trademark elegance, sleight of hand and philosophical wit that have established his reputation as a 'poet's poet'. But while these poems time their feints and punches as well as ever, often the poet's guard is deliberately kept down: Conjure's elegies and disappearing acts, love songs and tortuous journeys represent the most challenging, vulnerable and moving work Donaghy has yet written. 'Among the finest American poets of his generation' Robert McPhillips 'The artistry of Donaghy's work seems to me exemplary' Sean O'Brien 'The fine-tuned precision of a twelve-speed bike' Alfred Corn

Conjure

The death of Michael Donaghy in 2004 at the age of fifty robbed poetry of one of its best-loved and most naturally gifted practitioners. A modern metaphysical, Donaghy wrote poetry of great wisdom, grace, charm, erudition and consummate technical accomplishment. This book gathers together all of Donaghy's mature poetry, and includes the full texts of his four published volumes, as well as a number of fine uncollected pieces. As the poet-critic Sean O'Brien has remarked, Donaghy will come to be seen as one of the representative poets of the age.
