The Company of Horses

Peter Fallon

The Company of Horses is Peter Fallon's first collection of poems since the publication of News of the World: Selected and New Poems in 1998. A book of uncommon empathy, it counts the blessings of the whole green force of nature. There are hymns to trees and other living creatures – a pine marten and riding horses, the persistence of seabirds and starlings. Elegiac notes are woven into riffs of a collection that highlights beginnings and beginnings again.
