Cornwall In Verse - Tide To Tor In Poetry: A Cornwall Poetry Book Comes to Kindle This Thursday

Published 2nd June 2026

There is a particular pleasure in reading poetry the way it was meant to be read — slowly, aloud, with time to let each line settle. From Thursday 4th June, you'll be able to do exactly that wherever you happen to be, because Cornwall In Verse – Tide To Tor In Poetry arrives on Kindle.

Cornwall In Verse – Tide To Tor In Poetry will be available on Kindle from Thursday 4th June 2026.

The Cornwall poetry book has been available in paperback for a little while now, and the response has been wonderful. But not everyone wants to wait for a parcel, and not every reader has shelf space to spare. The Kindle edition means the whole of Cornwall — its harbours, its moors, its engine houses and hidden coves — can travel in your pocket.

A coast you can carry

Cornwall In Verse - Tide To Tor In Poetry is a journey told in fixed form: each place held still in four measured verses of four lines, mirroring the steady pull of the sea. From Land's End's windcut brink to the serpentine blaze of Lizard Point, from the cliff-carved stage of the Minack Theatre to the silver bends of Fowey, the book moves from headland to harbour and back inland again.

Along the way you'll find the mining echoes of Redruth and Camborne, the witch's lore of Boscastle, Zennor's mermaid, the renewed gardens of Eden and Heligan, and the softer hush of the Isles of Scilly. Myth walks alongside labour here; saints and smugglers, net-menders and gardeners all keep time together.

These are poems that want air. Read them aloud and you'll hear the returning words — gull, gorse, lantern — repeating like waves, the same and not the same.
