  The Quarry is a collection of extraordinary poems about ordinary subjects, marked by Daniel Huws's affinity for people as well as for nature and the wild. From the short, still rhythms of the title poem, in which the Welsh poet recalls long afternoon visits to the quarry as a boy, to the plaintive loneliness of a young mother in For Better for Worse, to the lovely evocation of sunrise in A Dawn, Huws shows that he is a poet of exceptional musicality and feeling.
