Exploring questions such as How does a blacksmith make fresh life from fire? Why does a creature that is half-man and half-hedgehog decide to take on the human race? and How do you ride a horse through time? this ambitious and prize-winning anthology reclaims the magical short story on behalf of the medium of poetry. Revealing a myriad of tales and charms, these poems take their imaginative energies from Romany life and lore, delving into lives lived intensely on the margins of reality and creating a language for poetry that is as entirely fresh as it is natural. Opening with a celebration of the friendship between the author and one of his late friends, this compilation enters and evokes strange new worlds, resurrecting the oral tradition of poetry as a form of magic, marvel, and making.
