The Egg of Zero
The zero at the heart of these poems is not nothing - not simply absence, forgetting or loss, though there are moving elegies among them. Direct, meditative, playful, hyper-alert, Philip Gross's distinctively wide range of tones work together in a subtle, searching new collection that addresses both the mind and heart. This is a not-quite-definable zero that gives surprising edge to life and language round it.
