Fugitive Colours

This stunning collection from Liz Lochhead encompasses a life enriched with people, places and relationships; it is with humour and empathy that these relationships are captured, remembered and honoured in moments of joy and poignancy. There is sadness, truth, hope and optimism throughout the five sections in this collection, and each is varied in scope but are woven together as part of a life. It marks the end of Liz Lochhead's term as Makar (Poet Laureate, 2011-2016) and features never before published work alongside poems written during her time as Makar.
