This striking combination of poems and photographs creates a remarkable new soundscape and vision of Glasgow and of the land that sometimes seems so far from its crowded streets. From the screech of city-centre buses to the crash of waves on a windswept beach, the poems convey the journey between the city and the country, between two very different worlds.

Norman Bissell's lyric snapshots of people and places are appositely illustrated by Oscar Marzaroli's stunning photographs. Some shown here for the first time, these capture the changing landscape in light and shade.

Bissell, Norman: - Norman Bissell became principal teacher of history at Braidhurst High School in Motherwell after obtaining an MA (Honours) degree in philosophy and history from the University of Glasgow. He was formerly a member of the Scottish Examination Board history panel and until recently an Area Officer of the Educational Institute of Scotland. His first poetry collection Slate, Sea and Sky features poems written in his native Glasgow and on the Isle of Luing in Argyll, where he now lives. His interest in the need for radical cultural renewal prompted him to found and lead the Open World Poetics group from 1989 until 1999 and to become director of the Scottish Centre for Geopoetics from 2002 until the present.
