Produktbeschreibung

Originally published posthumously in 1980, this book centres on 5 British poets - Geoffrey Hill, Philip Larkin, Jon Silkin, Thom Gunn and Charles Tomlinson - and on the emergence in postwar British poetry of 'double-lyrics', poems which have 'become two persons, two ways of expressing and attending critically in dramatic divisive conflict.'
