A Fingerpost for Rembrandt is a new collection by Peter Lloyd, an utterly original poet whose work has been much priased for its craft, power, wit and magnetic style.

‘Harsh and beautiful; haunting and troubled.’ – Michael Meehan

‘Marvellously sharp: black humour and heady surrealism; a powerful voice among the rubbish-tips of a wasted world.’ – Tom Shapcott

‘Richly dark/exotic composition: an empathy with Debussy, Beethoven, Stravinsky and Chopin that shares the vitality of intellect and density of understanding which Francis Webb brought to his interpretations of Bruckner and Mahler.’ – Richard Hillman

‘Real craft, raw power – demands repeated reading.’ – Poetry Book Club of Australia

Peter Lloyd Peter has had work published in Australia, Canada, the United States, the United Kingdom and France. His collections Black Swans (Wakefield Press 2000) and Collage (Wakefield Press 2002) received excellent reviews.
