Book Description
This study of post-war poetry in English looks at how poetry has become more and more like the novel, and the reasons for this change. The text examines the narrative change in poetry through individual studies of 12 major English-language poets from Britain, America, Ireland, Australia and the Caribbean, including Derek Walcott, Ted Hughes and Anne Stevenson.
