Overview

Music is the motif which underlies the poems in Marius Kociejowski's second book. In Dinu Lipatti plays Chopin's Sonata in B minor, a musical theme illustrates the solitude of a troubled woman `who is no man's, only music's bride'; elsewhere, music is the link in the relationship between the dying Chopin and George Sand. Other poems explore tenderness and the origins of violence. Marius Kociejowski is a poet of high intelligence and accomplishment, with a gift for historical empathy and a voice entirely his own. Marius Kociejowski was born in 1949 and lives in London. His Greville Press pamphlet Coast was awarded the Cheltenham Prize in 1991. His first collection was Doctor Honoris Causa (1993).
