From the flying of kites to a shoot-out at an oil-refinery; from making compost and fixing a mower to building a road; from the death of a friend killed by a parcel bomb to a celebration of a child's birth: Chris Mann's volume of poetry is marked by a broad range of images. Its main sequence, Shacklands, is an extended poetic expression of a major 20th-century phenomenon -- the massive growth of Third World cities.
