Title
A poetry collection of politically-inflected personal collage and city poems, MANOR'S RANSOM is the second installment of an ongoing life-poem by Cam Scott that began with ROMANS SNOWMARE (ARP Books, 2019). Gathering scraps of language in both open prose and verse, it sketches social space with psychological enclosure, skipping with ease through moments both mundane and charged. MANOR'S RANSOM guides the reader through its interminable tunnel, but offhand twists and sound play distract from the sadness of an unending track by nudging the tone just to the left of doom in surprising and inventive ways.
