Jeremy Hooker's 'Novelty'

Alone I cut a feeble figure

Jeremy Hooker (born 1941)

I don’t often read two consecutive poems from the same poet, but I wanted to hear this one.

It’s also taken from Hookers’s ‘Selected Poems (1965-2018) published in 2020 by Shearsman books.

The Fabled Third, the sequel to A Man of Heart and the final part of A Presentment of Englishry, is now available direct from the publisher Shearsman Uk and usual online sources. Signed copies of all three books are available from the shop on this site.
