Fifty years is quite a serious chunk of time, and I hope this book of poems will stand the test of time, along with all my other books.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eBest known as a writer of fiction, Graham Swift’s novels have received accolades and awards for over half a century. As well as being one of our greatest novelists, Swift is also a masterful poet. Now, for the first time, a selection of his poems has been collected in a single volume to celebrate his 50 years as a published writer. Like his prose, his poetry is deft, humane and understatedly powerful – a true testament to a lifetime spent in pursuit of literary excellence.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Gardners Books Limited","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":57257209069943,"sku":"9781398567429","price":9.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0357\/3199\/6807\/files\/9781398567429.jpg?v=1783071866","url":"https:\/\/thebookhousebroughtyferry.co.uk\/products\/9781398567429","provider":"The Bookhouse Broughty Ferry","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
