Hollow Palaces - An Anthology of Modern Country House Poems

His most recent volume of poetry, The Silence, was published by Carcanet in 2019. Klappentext This unique gathering of poems about country houses from Hardy to Armitage is more than just a highly entertaining anthology of accessible modern verse. It amounts to a survey of politico-historical shifts in twentieth-century British society as seen and imagined by both insiders and outsiders. It is the first such anthology. Zusammenfassung Over 160 distinguished poets representing a diversity of class, race, gender, and generation offer fascinating perspectives on stately exteriors and interiors, gardens both wild and cultivated, crumbling ruins and the extraordinary secrets they hide.
