everything I love about poetry. It revels in the musicality of language and is magnificently concise, evoking a whole lost world in a dozen elegantly understated lines."
This is not the first time [Jane] McKie has been honoured. Her debut collection, Morocco Rococo, won the Scottish Arts Council award for best first book of 2007.
The prize, donated wholly by the University of Strathclyde, is among the biggest for poetry in the UK.
