Something Other Than Other - Paperback

by Philip Rowland (Author)

'Something Other Than Other' is Philip Rowland's most representative collection to date. Ranging from minimal, concrete and found poems to epigrammatic reflections, imagist snapshots, haiku and tanka, the book unfolds in four carefully sequenced sections, including 'Surveillance', a long series of short poems based on observations of people and places in Rowland's adoptive home town of Tokyo. Throughout, this collection invites us to dwell on the multi-faceted relationships between its parts, continually opening space for the reader to listen for 'the sound of our listening'. 'You can't step in the same Rowland poem twice' - Joseph Massey
