(Paperback)

The search for love (or failing that, sex), the passing of time and the inevitability of pain and grief, the struggle for transcendence against our awareness of limitation: these are the things that can suddenly seem to compose a life - a life not so much reduced to essentials as seen in its passionate essence, a 'shorter' life.

(Paperback, Main)

A moving tribute to view one of the most distinctive bodies of work in twentieth-century English poetry.
