◊
Witty, wry, surreal and biting by turns, Haworth Hodgkinson's writing and performances
stand out from the crowd. With their offbeat glimpsing, his poems press reality's
Refresh button. Haworth is a rare poet with a unique style. To see the world
anew, enquire within.

What amazes me about Haworth's poetry is the breadth of his imagination. He emblazons
the everyday with extraordinary meaning from quirky quips in Cows to the
lyrical depth and beauty of A Dozen Words for Fog to the haunting tone of
Stone to Ice. His poetry embraces nature in all its forms whether comical,
sinister, beautiful or surreal. These poems will resonate with us long after the
page has been turned.
