Orion Publishing Co The Beautiful Poetry of Football Commentary
Book SynopsisRoma have risen from their ruins!Manolas, the Greek God in Rome!The unthinkable unfolds before our eyes.This was not meant to happen, this could not happen . . . this is happening!Peter DruryIf football is the beautiful game, then commentators are its poets.Whether it''s the brevity of Barry Davies, the boundless enthusiasm of Clive Tyldesley or the sheer eloquence of Peter Drury''s monologues, the canon of football commentary is replete with memorable lines that would have some of the great classical orators nodding in appreciation. Curated by football journalist Charlie Eccleshare, The Beautiful Poetry of Football Commentary is a glorious anthology of iconic lines, set out as poems, celebrating the best commentators that have ever graced a microphone. Each poem is accompanied by ''scholarly'' analysis capturing the enduring power of language on the beautiful game.So, drink it in, and immerse yourselfTrade Review"It is a privilege to be part of this excellent work" - Martin Tyler, English Football Commentator"There have been some brilliant lines of commentary down the years and Charlie's academic deconstruction of them is terrific. I'm both grateful and incredibly flattered to be included. To share such lovingly compiled pages with Motson, Davies, Wolstenholme, Butler and Coleman feels almost impossible." - Peter Drury, Lead Main Commentator for NBC Sports and former Lead Main Commentator for Premier League Productions.

Little, Brown Book Group Enter the Water
Book SynopsisAN OBSERVER BEST POETRY BOOK OF THE YEAR 2023''A dark-light beauty'' Ali Smith''Totally compelling, Enter The Water pulls you along like a current. Gentle, deft, spacious yet searingly vivid, it wanders like our narrator and shows us both nature and the city through new eyes . . . This book will sneak up on you and leave its music long ringing in your ears'' Cecilia Knapp''Enter the Water is both visceral and perceptive, a discomfort formulated in great tenderness and pain'' Bhanu Kapil ''Enter the Water has horizons and wit and allusion and rhyme and disenchanted politics and birds, and lines that hit the reader right in the heart . . . The writing is original and perfectly pitched . . . A significant debut'' Ian Pattersoni sat in a chapel the other night in my big gay coat talking to a god whose answer is only sometimes no no that was a lie the hTrade ReviewA dark-light beauty -- Ali SmithEviction, insomnia, techno-divination and mythologies that "begin with a bird" mark the psychic "circumference" of Enter the Water. This is "a narrative of trying" performed or lived as a book of poetry. Gates open unexpectedly, startling both the person exiting a space and the one peering in. It's this quality of being "both in and out always" that I most appreciate about Jack Wiltshire's writing. It's a place that's both visceral and perceptive, a discomfort formulated in great tenderness and pain. All the water in the book, all the animals and insects and birds: help. How "the felt-tip green of a butterfly" is a form of titration: a way to follow something, to look up, to stay connected, until it disappears -- Bhanu KapilEnter the Water has horizons and wit and allusion and rhyme and disenchanted politics and birds, and lines that hit the reader right in the heart. The emotional depth and intellectual scope are extraordinary. The writing is original and perfectly pitched, the developing narrative shares an anger at the uncaring corruption of the world with an awareness that being a person means "it is lonely being at the centre of things". A significant debut. -- Ian PattersonTotally compelling, Enter The Water pulls you along like a current. Gentle, deft, spacious yet searingly vivid, it wanders like our narrator and shows us both nature and the city through new eyes. With razor sharp questions and keen observations, our systems of power and privilege are destabilised and the precarity of existing in the current moment is exposed. This is a book full up to the throat with feeling; the intensity and inexpressibility of love, of uncertainty and displacement. But it's also funny, wry and original. This book will sneak up on you and leave its music long ringing in your ears -- Cecilia Knapp, author of Peach PigEnter the Water tempts you to wade straight in. And it will take only the briefest of dips, a toe in the water, before you find yourself needing to read on... [Wiltshire's] writing is fresh, funny and serious -- Kate Kellaway * Observer *Part Beckett, part Robert Macfarlane on LSD -- Philip Terry * Guardian *
