Product Description

From his first publication in the early 1940s, to his final works of the late 1970s, W.S. Graham has given us a poetry of intese power and inquisitive vision - a body of work regarded by many as among the best Romantic poetry of the 20th century. Graham died in 1986 with much of his work gathered in "Collected Poems 1942-1977". However, two posthumous collections - "Uncollected Poems" (1990) and "Aimed at Nobody" (1993) - have unearthed a wealth of new material and heightened the need to retell the full publication story. This collection aims to offer the broadest picture yet of Graham's work.

4.0 out of 5 stars An Evolving Technical Mastery, 16 May 2004

By A Customer

This poet is a master of precise construction. The style appears to evolve through the book, with the most challenging and experimental images tending to reside in the first half, while the more reflective pieces are often found further into the book. This personal perception has made the centre of the book particularly fascinating for me: 'Malcom Mooney's Land' contains the exquisite (very few words start with exq..!) lines:
I heard the telephone ringing deep
Down in a blue crevasse.
I did not answer it and could
Hardly bear to pass.

He also wrote about London in 'The Night City':

Between the big buildings
I sat like a flea crouched
In the stopped works of a watch.

If I ever write as expressively as he did in the few lines above, then it will all have been worthwhile!
