Bøker av Jeffrey Wainwright

The ninth Carcanet collection from one of the finest living English poets.

The latest collection from the author of Poetry the Basics (Routledge) explores family, mortality and the natural world by delving into memory and dreams.

Acceptable words' comprises a series of highly individual essays covering the whole of Geoffrey Hill's poetry to date, including the remarkable late flowering of the years since 1996. The essays offer detailed readings of many poems whilst making many - often surprising - associations with history, philosophy, religion, art and music.
