The Talking Horse and the Sad Girl and the Village Under the Sea

Author(s): Mark Haddon

Poetry

Here are bittersweet love-songs, comic set-pieces, lullabies, lucid and bold new versions of Horace, wry postmodern shenanigans, and an entire John Buchan novel condensed to five pages.
In his first book of poetry Mark Haddon brings the humanity of his voices, his dark humour and uncanny ventriloquism evident in his prose, and adds lyric power and surreal invention.

First published October 2005.
