  originally written as separate poems for contests on allpoetry.com I tacked them together to make this epic the story in verse of the Life and death of Vivienne and the Reaper, Incidentally, the first part is told by the unnamed Jack Taylor who has a bigger part in the later version of Vivienne and the Reaper and appears in my Magicians series as the annoying orderly.

  Come  and marvel at how life at large can be encapsulated into a microcosm in  the form of poetic license.  Let this book be your companion when seeking to have some me-time and to chill out in your own chosen surroundings. 
   
  Or,  discuss Mallory’s poems in more depth with others. Poetry can truly dazzle and serves as an equal alternative to the excitement of reading novels. 
   
  The  beauty of poetry is the choice given to read any extract to another appropriate age group that can introduce them into this wonderful genre of literature. Similar  to music, the titles stay with the reader and will, in virtual speak, stamp its date and location to induce its messages across the wide spectrum of what everyone likes to imagine or likes to encounter. 
   
  Poetry is the perfect treat or gift for anyone who would like to travel on a magic carpet away from the madding crowd. Soothe yourself instead - in contrast to an edge of seat thriller novel or film. 
   
  Enjoy!

For the first time, Kathleen Jamie has brought her astonishing lyric talent to the language of her homeland, with outstanding results. The Keelie Hawk is a deeply resonant collection written in Scots, with each poem accompanied by a translation into English. Its publication is a significant event in Scottish literature, not only a reclaiming by one of our finest poets of the mouth-music of literary Scots, but a furthering of that language: ‘by making poems, a language develops’, Jamie observes in a fascinating afterword.
