Product Description
Product Description
A collection of poetry by British poet, Arthur Boyars, who was editor of Oxford Poetry in 1948. The volume contains selected early poems, and his later ones, from 2003 to 2009. The striking way the poet finds his muse is that the poems come to him after a long time of incubation in the unconscious mind. When they finally reach the surface, they can be written down, as it were, from an inner dictation.
