Sobre IBD

Michael Rosen’s Selected Poems is a wonderfully moving sequence of prose poems extracted from his acclaimed autobiographical triptych Carrying the Elephant This is Not My Nose and In the Colonie. In a series of artful deceptively simple poems Rosen covers a vast terrain collating vivid and fragmentary memories from his left-wing Jewish upbringing his teenage holiday at a socialist summer camp in France his London childhood and the death of his eighteen-year-old son from meningitis. He takes in along the way marriage divorce births and the undiagnosed illness (an underactive thyroid) from which Rosen suffered for ten years.
