Format: Paperback
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.

In this sequel to the author's much acclaimed previous collection of haiku from IRON Press, Our Sweet Little Time, Hamish Ironside once again travels through an entire year via the three line poetry form. Divided into 12 monthly sections, these 120 haiku reflect the seasons, mental states, domestic realities, children and the hi-tec realities of modern life, often with a disarming humour:
for good measure
the cash machine
delivers an electric shock
At times the haiku are almost self-mocking about the author's task:
working weekend -
the Oxford Spelling Dictionary
shouts asshole at me
Elsewhere, the description of the natural world blends with modern devices:
hilltop puddle-
starling flicker
like super 8
The book once again comes in an attractive small page format ideal for the haiku form.
