Description

This is the first book-length study of the poetry and journal writings of Gillian Clarke in their entirety; it is the first extensive examination of her work published in this century, and the first full account of how her work has developed in the course of her career as a writer and teacher. In addressing timely and highly relevant themes in Clarke's work, which have been relatively overlooked until now, the book highlights and re-examines her importance for today's readers. Discussing the energy, subtlety and originality of her works, the author commends Clarke as an innovative, politically-alert and scientifically and cosmologically-aware Welsh writer of global significance.
