Bücher von David Miller

David Miller has been writing some of the most beautiful, adventurous and intelligent poetry he has ever written in the last few years, which makes the present (poetry is always in the present) a blessed time for readers like myself. Each new work astonishes and delights.

Afterword is a long poem in fragments, with some long lines of poetry folded over, as it were, onto the next line(s) of the page, as in Walt Whitman, Carl Sandburg and Allen Ginsberg. It is a long poem in fragments, but it might also be seen as a poem sequence: of memories and meditations, dreams and (for want of a better word) visions. It's increasingly invaded by images of destruction and desolation: of nature, of animals, of humankind; with those images prefigured by the opening passages. At the end of the text, the negative emphasis is "turned" upon and against itself into the language of transition. It's a poem that's concerned with limits and the possible surpassing or exceeding of limits. "David Miller's writing - poetry, prose, recitatif on the cusp of prose and verse - is peculiar to himself. Its tone is singular: spiritual insight and wisdom grounded in conversational even throwaway sentences. At the same time, the writing belongs in a poetics associated with André du Bouchet, Paul Celan, Japanese masters and other writers - who occupy a space where traditional genres cannot reach - and is in implicit connection with them." -Anthony Rudolf"David Miller writes: 'any writing that engages with the spiritual has to be dialogic provisional & open-ended in nature otherwise we're not talking about an engagement with the spiritual' - and Miller's new text does engage with the spiritual. Both learned and lyrical, it creates lyric utterance through a comprehension of the learning. David Miller both guides and follows - in the wisest European tradition. This is an overwhelming accomplishment." -Tom Lowenstein

David Miller's work is unclassifiable: he is a poet and a prose-writer, but his prose here is poetic. Some of the work is prose-poetry; some is narrative in nature and might instead be classified as experimental fiction.

The media has told us for over twenty five years that the conflict in Northern Ireland is irrational and has 'no objective social basis'. The role of the British Army in Northern Ireland is still described as a peacekeeping one: the cause of the 'troubles' as 'terrorism'. Yet, even in the light of the peace initiatives, many people in Britain and abroad know little about the war that has not been called a war. Why is this so? *BR**BR*Don't Mention the War explains some of the fundamental reasons why there is such a dearth of knowledge and concern about Northern Ireland and how the problem has been defined both publicly and politically. Miller argues that the central strategy of the British state since 1969 has been to contain the troubles and bring about a return to 'normal'. In pursuing this argument, Miller examines the strategies and tactics used by the British government, the nationalists, the unionists and others to influence perceptions and ideas about the conflict through press statements and other information management activities.*BR**BR*This is a unique and timely work, based on over 100 interviews with journalists, government officials, political activists and politicians, which lays bare the lies of the propagandists and paints a disturbing picture of the success of the media managers in manipulating our perception of the conflict in Northern Ireland.
