Author Description

A Cure for Woodness is the third part of Michal Haslam's trilogy Music, the first two parts of which, The Music Laid her Songs in language (Arc, 2001) and A Sinner Saved by Grace (Arc, 2005), were widely praised and received excellent reviews when they were published. Like the first two parts of the trilogy, A Cure for Woodness is a reaffirmation of the nature, language and music with which the poet finds himself surrounded in his hilltop home in the Yorkshire Pennines. --Cover
