<p/><br></br><p><b> About the Book </b></p></br></br>Poems written only from three-letter airport codes demand a new kind of passport.<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br>Every major airport has a three-letter code from the International Air Transport Association. In perhaps history's greatest-ever feat of armchair travel, Nasser Hussain has written a collection of poetry entirely from those codes. <p/> In a dazzling aeronautic feat of constraint-based writing, <i>SKY WRI TEI NGS</i> explores the relationship between language and place in a global context. Watch as words jet-set across the map, leaving a poetic flight path. See letters take flight (and leave their baggage behind).<p/><br></br><p><b> About the Author </b></p></br></br>Nasser Hussain is a Lecturer in Literature and Creative Writing at Leeds Beckett University in the UK. His first book, boldface was published in 2014. He holds a PhD in English from the University of York (UK), an MA in Creative Writing from the University of Windsor and a BA in English from Queen's University. <br> Nasser has had a number of occupations: treeplanter, wilderness guide, amateur restaurateur, and now academic and poet. He likes his new job best. For him, poems are best described as 'language with a pattern', and much of his recent practice takes pleasure in finding new patterns to wonder at. <i>SKY WRI TEI NGS</i> is the first expression of a larger interest in mass transit, and is his attempt to find a literal and poetic intersection between two things that 'move' us (in this case, planes and poems).
