Wherever we are on the planet we can’t help noticing when it’s too hot or too cold or something in between.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eIn these ten poems we encounter everything from drought to a hurricane, taking in fog, snow and spring sunshine on the way. It goes without saying that there is also more than enough rain. The poems don’t merely describe weather; they also capture how it can induce in us particular feelings and states of mind. In one poem, rain creates a very particular atmosphere:\u003cbr\u003e“I love the privacy of rain,\u003cbr\u003ethe way it makes things happen\u003cbr\u003eon verandahs, under canopies\u003cbr\u003eor in the shelter of trees…”\u003cbr\u003efrom ‘Privacy of rain’ by Helen Dunmore\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe poems are as varied as weather itself, taking us through the changing seasons and relishing the inevitable surprises that come along the way.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003ePoems by Emily Brontë, John Clare, Gillian Clarke, Helen Dunmore, Norman MacCaig, Graham Mort, Grace Nichols, Sheenagh Pugh,\u003cbr\u003eNeil Rollinson and Annette Volfing.\u003cbr\u003ePUBLISHER:\u003cbr\u003eCandlestick Press\u003cbr\u003eAUTHOR:\u003cbr\u003eGraham Mort\u003cbr\u003eBIND:\u003cbr\u003ePaperback\u003cbr\u003ePAGES:\u003cbr\u003e24","brand":"NATIONWIDE BOOKS","offers":[{"title":"Default","offer_id":41798078988421,"sku":"PR427376","price":24.0,"currency_code":"NZD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0562\/0213\/3637\/files\/volts9781913627508_0_TSM5NVXZKZ7N.jpg?v=1786165832","url":"https:\/\/smartfoxbooks.co.nz\/products\/ten-poems-about-weather-poetry-book-by-graham-mort-paperback","provider":"Smartfox Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
