Robert Crawford's new collection is an exhilarating celebration of the world he lives in. Beginning with a group of moving, renewing love poems to his wife, the book builds into a polyphonic hymn to life in all its aspects. There is a powerful sense of communion and connection in The Tip of My Tongue. Crawford embraces the rhythms of the whole circumference--from Perth, Scotland, to Perth, Australia. These are poems that are convincingly earthed in the land and the language yet unafraid of spiritual, even religious notes; richly lyrical and passionate yet shot through with a humour and a vitality that is utterly engaging.
