Book excerpt: Nigel Wells's Wilderness is haunted by the figure of sixties cult-singer Jim Morrison. The poems are about American outlaws and outsiders. They start with Morrison, and Morrison is never far away, like Jekyll's Mr Hyde. He is the wraith behind the other poems, a werwolf slipping back from the wild, a shadow.Just Bounce is the other side of Wells: his religious impulse, his animal nature, his delight in riot and ceremony, his obsession with English churches, Welsh rivers, birds, death and dereliction.Nigel Wells won a Welsh Arts Council Book Prize for his first book, The Winter Festivals (Bloodaxe Books, 1980)
