‘to be affected in many ways
is the sole ambition of the days’
thrums grows out of Clark’s celebrated collection, that which appears, in an extension and affirmation of that book’s particular aesthetic. Including poems first published in London Review of Books and New York Review of Books, the poems’ closely observed landscapes tell of presence and loss, of change and precarious continuity.
One of Scotland’s most distinctive writers, a vivid minimalist, ruralist and experimentalist, his selected poems, The Threadbare Coat (2020), is also published by Carcanet.
Thomas A Clark lives in a fishing village on the east coast of Scotland. Five books of his poetry have been published by Carcanet, including The Hundred Thousand Places (2009), Yellow & Blue (2014), Farm by the Shore (2017), The Threadbare Coat (2020) and that which appears
(2024). Numerous small books, cards and editions from his own Moschatel
Press investigate ways that the presentation of poetry can inform sense
and nuance. During the summer months, with the artist Laurie Clark, he
runs Cairn Gallery, a space for minimal and conceptual art.
