About this product
Product Information
Blade Pitch Control Unit is a gathering of Sean Bonney's work in poetry over the last five years. It collects together all the work from his previous pamphlets that he still feels is valid, plus a number of previously unpublished pieces. The presentation of this work in a single volume makes clear the scope of his project as a psychogeographic/historical exploration of the possibilities of political verse that would seek to obliterate the pitfalls of simple protest or the expression of easily assimilable opinions. The work moves from psychogeographical registerings of Greenwich and the Isle of Dogs at the time of the Millennium Dome, through excavations of the ghosts of millennial heresies still present in contemporary London, and into a charting of the effects of official mendacity on the psyche of any individual citizen who knows that all private experience is collective. The events of recent history play a major role, sometimes obliquely, sometimes less so, but Bonney refuses to allow his voice to be merely an outraged commentary on contemporary woes. Instead, he presents a poetry that makes clear that the protestor is also culpable, but equally a poetry that understands that only through a registering of this position can a way out be found. For Bonney, a poem is typically a highly rhythmic (or arrhythmic) object that seeks through maximum density to communicate a dialectical relationship with the cosmos, and to explore the faultlines of official history and urbanism through which possibilities of liberation can be traced.

Reviews
Boran's breadth of references is wide, ranging from science to philosophy to religion, but it is his fascination with language, and the objects that can embody ideas and his ability to convey such complex ideas in the most accessible of ways, which is one of his most remarkable qualities as a poet., In Pat Boran's poetry, stylish and learned as it is, the humanity has always been to the forefront. As Dennis O'Driscoll says in his characteristically just introduction, the publication of this ample selection of Boran's poems is greatly to be applauded. Much admired and appreciated as he is, seeing the work extensively like this is a revelation, from the complex meditations on place and home and leaving in the 1990 poems, to the unsentimental facing of his father's death, and the sureness of eye in the elegies and observations in the new poems., These poems are scores for impassioned recitation, burning with a rare urgency and intelligence hellip; They have a raw quality: manic states inscribed in phrases short enough to catch them. Because the poems are written for Bonney's speaking voice, they have an elegant rhythmic flow: this elegance provides a foil for the desperation and violence of the content., This is a delightful collection of some of the best of Pat Boran's work. It is a 'landscape of artistic definition', a close encounter with a poet whose work captures moods and moments, people and places, loves and losses, and, in doing so, reveals an interesting, insightful and always imaginative perspective., These poems are scores for impassioned recitation, burning with a rare urgency and intelligence ... They have a raw quality: manic states inscribed in phrases short enough to catch them. Because the poems are written for Bonney's speaking voice, they have an elegant rhythmic flow: this elegance provides a foil for the desperation and violence of the content.

The book is in perfect condition, brand new, and is exactly as described. This item is difficult to find here, and the seller priced it very reasonably. It shipped from the UK to Canada, and unfortunately took a little longer to arrive than the seller hoped, but it was shipped less than 24 hours after I purchased. When I contacted the seller, they were very responsive and helpful. I would not hesitate to purchase from this seller again. Definitely recommend!
