About the book

Richie McCaffery's debut collection of poems,

Cairn, begins in a dedication and ends with ghosts – in between lies hoards of artefacts and long-forgotten antiquities; a police whistle, a tarnished silver spoon, the bookmark lodged in a boring book decades before that sings of a lost age. These poems find their stories in the overlooked places of everyday, and take utter delight in the unexpected image and turn of phrase. Soaring, often short and bitter-sweet, the poems form markers in the landscape of love, lore and family, making mementoes to the buried and the living.Richie McCaffery (b. 1986) lives in Stirling and studies and works as a teaching assistant at The University of Glasgow. He is the author of two poetry pamphlets,

Spinning Plates (HappenStance Press, 2012) and

Ballast Flint (Cromarty Arts Trust, 2013). His poems have appeared in journals and anthologies such as

The Dark Horse,

Stand,

The Rialto and

The Best British Poetry 2012.
