Inhaltsangabe

In recent years George MacBeth has sometimes seemed in danger of being forgotten. This selection, chosen from poems written when MacBeth was in his late teens to the work of his last months, will give a new generation the chance to enjoy his memorable voice. In her preface, Carol Ann Duffy writes that 'His poetry is eclectic, formally dazzling, gleefully experimental' and that this selection 'shows his generous ability to entertain, challenge and move his readers.'

Über diesen Titel

Über die Autorin bzw. den Autor

George MacBeth (1932-1992) was one of the most gifted, inventive, moving and entertaining poets of our time. He was also a notable performer of his own work, and a great encourager of other people's talent - something to which he devoted himself both as BBC radio producer and as a dynamic figure at literary festivals. He received the Geoffrey Faber Memorial Award and his Poems from Oby was a Choice of the Poetry Book Society. As well as publishing over twenty poetry books, he wrote novels and children's books, and edited several poetry anthologies.
