I just stumbled (belatedly) on the news that Don Paterson has won the Queen's Medal in Poetry for his recent book
Rain. What I know of Paterson's work is sonnets and other forms--and I like it tremendously--so I wondered how much of the new book is formal.
I've been able to find the title poem online:
"Rain"
and it looks exciting and encouraging.
Just found another one:
"Two Trees"
What else from the book is out there? Has anyone here read it? I see now that it apparently hasn't yet been released in the US. What about our UK contingent?
