1 1 y separately published work icon Little Pataphysics Tim Thorne , Berry : PressPress , 2021 23544490 2021 selected work poetry 'Sixty years ago Tim Thorne first encountered the songs of Little Pattie and the absurdist pataphysics of Alfred Jarry. After decades, during which he has published fifteen collections of poetry, and won numerous awards, he has brought these two influences together. The resultant poems inhabit a world of fruitful contradictions and light-hearted truths and are a pleasure to read.' (Publication summary)
