First edition. The first comprehensive collection of Malcolm Lowry's poetry featuring two extremely rare photographs of the author during the final period of his life.

Edited by Lowry's close friend, Earle Birney, Canadian poet and novelist, alongside Lowry's widow, Marjerie, this Pocket Poets edition unites poems previously published as well as those never seen before.

"Success is like some horrible disaster/…Fame like a drunkard consumes the house of the soul" admits Lowry in his poem, "After Publication of Under the Volcano".

Malcolm Lowry is most famous for his novel Under the Volcano, which follows the final hours of an English alcoholic living in Mexico on the Day of The Dead and tracks all that transpires in a tangential story reminiscent of Joyce's Ulysses, for whom he was eventually claimed a successor. Although a grand accomplishment for an aspiring writer in their twenties, the book would not be published for almost a decade. It was in 1939 that Lowry met his wife, Marjerie, who came to his aid and fierecly edited his work, prompting him in new creative directions to an eventual finish line that brought him wide acclaim. Their intensely tempestuous relatonship makes Marjerie's influence on this partiuclar compilation more intruging.

Published five years after Lowry's tragic death- in the preface to this moving edition, Earle Birney writes, "The world he could not live with is drowning in its own element. The self-drownded poet survives here in his".

Saved me so much money
Im loving this mattress topper. It has added a noticeable layer of comfort to my firm mattress without making it feel too soft. The cushion is plush yet supportive and has made sleeping more comfortable overall. The bamboo feels soft and breathable. It fits on the mattress with the deep pockets and stays in place alk night. Setup was easy and it fluffed up after unpacking. If you have a firm mattress and want extra comfort without replacing it, this topper is a great option. Highly recommend

Comfortable, cooling, and OEKO-TEX certified, it’s a great way to refresh any mattress.
This 3-inch mattress topper instantly upgraded my bed with a softer, cooler, and more supportive feel. The bamboo-viscose fabric is noticeably breathable, helping regulate heat throughout the night—great for hot sleepers. The 1200GSM down-alternative fill adds plush, cloud-like cushioning while still offering balanced support for the back and shoulders. It fits securely with the deep pockets and stays in place even when turning. After allowing it to fully expand, the topper fluffs up beautifully. Comfortable, cooling, and OEKO-TEX certified, it’s a great way to refresh any mattress.

Great upgrade for a rental apartment mattress
The mattress in my rental place is firm to the point where it almost feels unfinished. Instead of replacing it, I decided to try adding this topper. It made an immediate difference in the way the bed feels when I sit or lie down. There’s a nice cushioned layer that softens that “flat” feeling but still holds its shape. Another thing I noticed is how breathable it is. I expected thick padding to feel warm, but the airflow here feels better than the original mattress surface. Even after moving around, it never felt heavy or stuffy.

Soft and Comfortable Topper
I got this bamboo mattress topper for a small single bed we keep in our guest room, but I ended up testing it out myself first. The material feels soft and breathable, which is nice because that room can get a little warm in the afternoons. It adds a good amount of cushioning without making the bed too soft. After a couple of nights, my back actually felt better compared to the old mattress alone. I also appreciate that it’s machine washable, because our guest room sometimes doubles as a nap spot for my son after swim class, and spills happen. It dried pretty quickly in the dryer and kept its shape. Overall, it made the bed feel much more comfortable and fresh.

Added comfort for someone working night shifts
I work odd hours, so my sleep schedule is all over the place. My mattress has always felt a bit too stiff after long shifts, so I got this topper hoping it would help me relax faster. It really changed the overall feel of the bed. The padding has a cushioned lift that makes lying down feel smoother, especially around the shoulders and lower back. Instead of feeling like I’m dropping onto a firm surface, there’s a soft layer that evens out the pressure. What surprised me most is how light the surface feels. Even after staying in one position, it never gets stuffy or heavy. The airflow makes a difference when your body is trying to wind down after work. The fitted pocket also stays tight around the mattress, so nothing shifts when I move. I can stretch out without worrying about the topper sliding off.
