Voices from the Landscape by Mark A. Carr
“In this evocative collection, Mark A. Carr invites readers on a tactile journey through diverse sceneries. From cityscapes to seascapes, cloudscapes to landscapes, his poems resonate with a deep connection to nature, offering a comforting yet questioning exploration of our role within it. What even is landscape? Carr's poetry challenges us to reflect and discover the answer together.”
Sam Illingworth, Professor of Creative Pedagogies and founder of Consilience
“In Voices from the Landscape, Mark Carr invites us to discover landscapes, real and imagined, literal and metaphoric, lost and found. With a specific Northern sensibility, he grapples with our connections to the elements, sometimes deep, other times precarious, as we endeavour to make sense of who we are and our place within the world.”
Professor David J. Connor Author of Once Upon a Journey
"The poems in ‘Voices from the Landscape’, were, for many years, simply a very personal account of my relationship with the landscape. Words and phrases pencilled into my walking notebooks, huddled between small sketches and a record of the day’s events. I have never consciously looked for a poem, or strode out into the landscape in search of some inspiration. The landscape, when it needed, spoke to me, not I to it"
