Travelling to the Fish Orchards

The places we come from - a suburban childhood, family, home; the people we are and those we want to be; the ordinary objects we fix on in order to create moments of meaning - a paintchart, a pair of gloves; the places we end up, real or imagined…These poems take the reader on extraordinary journeys, which redefine our way of seeing the world. Robert Seatter’s debut collection is characterised by an open, very personal tone. His style is fresh and uncluttered, his imagery charged and luminous.
