Table of ContentsReviewsThese poems are words on a page, but the way Antony Owen spins them, they have a sheer physicality that is truly remarkable. Few poems evoke for me such strong visual images - and bring such a powerful emotional kick. Sometimes lyrical, sometimes raw, these poems convey what it is to be human, to feel, to live, and to die. From the greatest horror of nuclear Armageddon, to the everyday impact and emotional brutality of war, Owens writes it all. He takes us on a journey of head and heart, wrings us out, and leaves us uplifted and far-seeing. - Kate Hudson, General Secretary for CND Author InformationAntony Owen was raised in the working-class heartland of Coventry which alongside growing up in Cold War Britain influenced his poetry on conflict. His work features in UK School lesson resources for peace education by CND and Quakers. He is a recipient of the Museum of Military Medicine Award (2018), The Bread & Roses Award and most notably was shortlisted for The Ted Hughes Award for new work in poetry for his study of atomic bomb survivors taken in Japan.
