A Home in Space: Selected Concrete, Visual and Sound Poetry

Reveals Edwin Morgan's groundbreaking multimedia poetics beyond his celebrated lyric voice.

Edwin Morgan is best remembered as Scotland's foremost national poet, a bold, lyric voice who shaped conversations around queerness, politics, and postwar life. But Morgan was also a restless experimenter working far beyond traditional verse. This book brings together, for the first time, the full range of his visual and sound poetry--from vibrant poster poems and surrealist collages to concrete poetry, cut-ups, and poem-sculptures. It reveals Morgan as a major figure in twentieth-century multimedia art, linking language, image, and sound in surprising and timely ways. Attuned to questions of identity, ecology, and empire, Morgan's work remains as urgent and inventive as ever--a celebration of poetic form at its most expansive and alive.
