HMS Little Fox

This was Lee Harwood's first major collection after his remarkable sequence of Fulcrum volumes (The White Room, Landscapes and The Sinking Colony) had established him as one of the most interesting younger poets in the England. HMS Little Fox shows Harwood striking out in new directions, some of which were not be further developed, but it also shows evidence of his mature style. Although available in the author's Collected (Shearsman, 2004), this volume faithfully reproduces the original edition, with its postcard images, Egyptian sigils, and also one poem that the author decided to exclude from his Collected.
