Local Honey

by Robert Saxton

Format: Paperback

Condition: Very Good — £4.88
What do the conditions mean?

Our conditions mean the following:

  • New - a brand new book
  • Almost New - appears new but is actually secondhand.
  • Very Good - only minor imperfections such as minor scuffs to edge or cover or a price written in pencil or shop sticker.
  • Standard Secondhand - Clearly been read before, but not too bad. We do not recommend these for gifting. Spines usually creased. Could also include creases or folds to cover, some writing such as in the cover or elsewhere, underlining or highlighting, but might not do. Possibly some stains or marks. Similar in general to books in any secondhand shop or charity shop.
  • Poor Condition - Usually this will have a specific problem such as writing inside, water damage, missing dust jacket, heavy staining, large creases or cuts. These are readable copies but not nice ones. On other websites this condition is called 'Acceptable' or 'Fair' , but we want to be more honest.

Juggling its opposites with panache—heart and intellect, melancholy and zest, derangement and perspicacity—this varied poetry collection is a poignant meditation on love, memory, travel, and homecoming. Beginning with early stirrings of logical thought in a Paleolithic cave, the focus ranges through different times, places, and viewpoints before homing close in the last poems to recent personal family predicaments that are universal in their resonance. Restless in its craftsmanship, responsive in its moods, with graceful notes of wit and meaningful play, this book delights with the music of words, insights, and ideas.
