In perhaps history's greatest-ever feat of armchair travel, Nasser Hussain has written a collection of poetry entirely from those codes. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e In a dazzling aeronautic feat of constraint-based writing, \u003ci\u003eSKY WRI TEI NGS\u003c\/i\u003e explores the relationship between language and place in a global context. Watch as words jet-set across the map, leaving a poetic flight path. See letters take flight (and leave their baggage behind).\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAbout the Author\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003eNasser Hussain is a Lecturer in Literature and Creative Writing at Leeds Beckett University in the UK. His first book, boldface was published in 2014. He holds a PhD in English from the University of York (UK), an MA in Creative Writing from the University of Windsor and a BA in English from Queen's University. \u003cbr\u003e Nasser has had a number of occupations: treeplanter, wilderness guide, amateur restaurateur, and now academic and poet. He likes his new job best. For him, poems are best described as 'language with a pattern', and much of his recent practice takes pleasure in finding new patterns to wonder at. \u003ci\u003eSKY WRI TEI NGS\u003c\/i\u003e is the first expression of a larger interest in mass transit, and is his attempt to find a literal and poetic intersection between two things that 'move' us (in this case, planes and poems).\u003cbr\u003e","brand":"Coach House Books","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":50670814626066,"sku":"9781552453711","price":12.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0831\/4771\/8930\/files\/img_c7cec7f4-8d77-4ecb-b21f-92a6a799e529.jpg?v=1733789938","url":"https:\/\/surprise-castle.myshopify.com\/products\/sky-wri-tei-ngs-sky-writings-9781552453711","provider":"Surprise Castle","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
