5.0 out of 5 stars The most powerful book of poetry I've read in years, 8 May 2002

By A Customer

Robertson set the bar pretty high with his first collection, A PAINTED FIELD, but he has produced a second that consolidates and deepens that achievement. SLOW AIR feels complete in a way that few other poetry books do: from the first poem to the last you are aware of a shaping spirit at work, and a mind wholly in tune with its expression. Just read 'Wedding the Locksmith's Daughter' to see a real craftsman at work. This is profoundly moving poetry - original, highly charged and perfectly pitched. Thrilling.
