Dwell by Simon Armitage chatto & windus The poems teem with graceThis gorgeously illustrated collection of poems illuminates and reimagines the ingenious, fragile dwellings of the living creatures around us. Poet Laureate Simon Armitage was inspired to write these poems by the Lost Gardens of Heligan in Cornwall, an ambitious restoration project where history and mystery combine. The reawakened landscape with its woods, meadows and "jungle' offers a bustling, fertile realm for all sorts of creatures to inhabit.
