Sea Crow Press Releases New Poetry Book: "Shaking The Persimmon Tree" by

Marc Woodward

Searching, songful poems. "Shaking The Persimmon Tree," which contains several prize-winning
poems, promises to take you drinking Sambuca with Vincent Van Gogh, fly fishing on the Ganges,
and rolling naked in the elephant grass. Following the release in February 2022, the book is already
enjoying great reviews from readers and reviewers.

London, United Kingdom February 09, 2022 --(PR.com)-- In his new collection, Marc Woodward writes
of time spent in Italy, India, and elsewhere, as well as drawing from the rural environment of his home in
Devon, England. These are beautifully crafted, melodic poems which lightly carry their intrinsic
darkness. Whilst there are poems about cancer, Covid, and loss, these are balanced by poems about love
and nature, and often the author’s sense of humour shines through, even if at times it’s just a glimmer
through the back door of a morgue!

Marc Woodward's poetry, "links the personal and the countryside by providing both background and
emotional intensity. Despite his non-urban base he has a wide range of subjects in his work going from
the English countryside to Italy, Switzerland, the Ganges, and many places elsewhere. To read his poetry
is to go from images to ideas to images seamlessly." — Patricia Oxley, founder and editor of Acumen
Literary Journal
