The Lizard Catchers

By Peter Thabit Jones

Poetry. Alan Llwyd describes Peter Thabit Jones as "a master of the exact word." The poems in THE LIZARD CATCHERS capture just such a command of language as an art form. Clear and crisp, much like the "sky-stabbing swords" from Jones' poem "Weller," this poetry has an unusual sharpness. Peter Thabit Jones' work has appeared in Poetry Review, Child Education, New England Review, Junior Education, 2Plus2, Poetry Wales, Cumberland Poetry Review, and Ninnau. The author of six collections of poetry and one collection of short stories, Jones is the recipient of the Eric Gregory Award for Poetry, The Society of Authors Award, The Royal Literary Fund Award, and an Art Council of Wales Awards.
