Böcker av Matthew Caley

To Abandon Wizardry, Matthew Caley's seventh collection, explores a world where it's harder and harder to tell what's real and what's not. Where our political and cultural reality seems so unbelievable, we search for a plot and find one that comes from the Harry Potter playbook. Our screens full of wonders, our streets full of decay.

Trawlerman's Turquoise, Matthew Caley's sixth collection, brings together elements as diverse as telepathy, Madame Blavatsky, epistolary novels, muse worship and Balzac's coffee addiction.

Poems from the diary of an immortal time-travelling rake, or someone imagining themselves to be such a rake, having drunk too many espressos? A series of beautifully skewed, left-field, back-handed love poems.

This is a highly unusual book: every poem in Matthew Caley's "Apparently begins" - or occasionally ends - with the word 'apparently'.
