Punctuations from History is Ian Gouge's latest collection of poems, a volume that in various ways explores our place in, and relation to, history. Whilst there are similarities in theme to his collection Human Archaeology (which debuted at the 2017 Ripon Poetry Festival), the threads tying these pieces together are looser, more fluid.
In an unusual departure, Punctuations from History contains brief 'context commentaries' that provide the reader with a foothold into the individual poems: an attempt to offer up a literary trowel to allow the reader to get below the surface of the poem more readily.
Overall, the collection tries to assist with unravelling notions of how we were / or how we are now / or how we might yet be; fragments or mirrors offered up from our 'punctuated history'.
