Short Chapters From Sunset is an exquisite collection of new and selected verse by the critically acclaimed and award-winning author, Chris Tutton. Coined by Ned Sherrin as “the ma ster of the short poem” his work has also been described as “absolutely beautiful” by Alexander Waugh with Iain Anderson of BBC Scotland noting that it was “philosophy in poetry form” and the Sunday Times commenting on its “dramatic passion and dignity” . The existential poetry of Chris Tutton is imbued with an uncommon sensitivity. In this, his eighth collection familiar notions of love, loss, identity, communication, vulnerability, language and truth are exquisitely deconstructed; affectingly re-evaluated; laid bare and scrutinised with a philosopher’s eye.
