Product Description
A selection of Tarn's poems from the first 12 years of his American period. Only one of his American volumes - the long poem "Lyrics for the Bride of God" (not excerpted here) - was published in Britain, so this is the only large collection of Tarn's work to be published on this side of the Atlantic since 1975.
