XIVLiners

Tom Raworth

This is the first collected edition of Tom Raworth's fourteen-line poems. The book sits well in the hand, has a poem per page, and uses Perpetua font, which is one of the fonts Raworth first used as a type setter. The collection runs to over 200 pages.

The first of Raworth's fourteen liners were compiled in 1987 in Visible Shivers, and reprinted as Sentenced he Gives a Shape (Zasterle). The last were published in 1995 as "Name Unknown". XIVLiners includes previously uncollected poems.
