Rooted in the land he dwells on, attuned to the ancestral lines of place and body and the resonances between the two, in Aubrac David Batten records our at-oneness with the nature that humanity too often attempts to fragment. Lucid, deeply effective and intelligent, these poems take us into a landscape where the past speaks loudly to the present and to the future, letting us know that we are not alone, not apart. In a year in which the poet himself moves through cycles of chemotherapy, along with the randomness of death, life and renewal re-assert themselves with the movement of the seasons. As he observes nature with a keenness of vision and attention that is present in every line, nature returns the gaze. A collection that bears witness to the human and more than human.
Paul travels to work on a day like any other: filled with reflection and questions. But the chill is more than the wind slicing in off the North Sea and Paul's soul searching runs deeper, with no end in sight. Part autobiography, part humanist study, Rotterdam is a unique, moving text. -- Cinnamon Press
In Untergang, David Batten moves offers a sequence that is internally reflective, almost claustrophobic. Starting indoors in the dark of a power cut in the depth of winter and finishing inside the writer's ribcage, this is not a world without hope, but it is one that urgently needs to wake, to face the dark and change it.
