Collected Poems - Paperback

by Geoff Hattersley (Author)

Geoff Hattersley's Collected Poems brings together over three decades of work, mapping a singular voice grounded in working-class experience, dark wit, and sharply observed detail. From the everyday surrealism of factory life and Yorkshire pubs to moments of intimacy, grief, and wry reflection, Hattersley's poetry resists pretension while retaining emotional precision. The poems are marked by their clarity of tone, their unflinching engagement with social realities, and their ability to move between satire and tenderness without losing balance. This is a comprehensive and compelling portrait of a poet deeply attuned to the texture of ordinary life.
