Field At Vallorcines

Out Of Print... This collection of twenty-nine new poems is the first volume of Roland Mathiass poetry to be published since his Selected Poems in 1983. While the geographical locations of some of these poems range from Scotland to Ireland, Brittany, Cyprus and Switzerland as well as his native Breconshire, at the heart of Roland Mathiass work is his strong identification with Wales and its people. Many poems are inspired by his acute awareness of Welsh history and mythology. This strong sense of history and place together with his quest for a defining identity and his questioning religious belief pervade these carefully crafted, evocative poems.
