You'll learn about allegory and enjambment, hakius and epistles, while being enchanted by the beauty of the language. -Patricia Carswell, WI Life '10 Top Reads' Reading this book, you get to know poetry from the inside, without the alienating or distracting effect of abstract definition. Knowledge of how poetry works is here imbibed not as a course of instruction but as a sustained pleasure. -Bernard O'Donoghue, University of Oxford, Winner of the Whitbread Prize for Poetry Lucy Newlyn has written a masterpiece about poetic process. It is also a book of place and people, of language and sound, of form and intelligence, of story and history, and of tragedy and delight ... A future classic. -David Morley, University of Warwick, Winner of the Ted Hughes Award and author of The Cambridge Companion to Creative Writing Tremendously useful and enjoyable ... Conveys a hefty bundle of knowledge and delight, a little bit at a time. -Carmen Bugan, University of Michigan and Gotham Writers Workshop A wonderfully refreshing approach ... Every one of these pieces shines with vigour. -Rowan Williams An ingenious, gentle, lucid and brilliant book that both describes and performs ... by turns poignant, funny and haunting. -Nicholas Royle, University of Sussex, author of An Introduction to Literature, Criticism and Theory
