Since becoming Poet Laureate in 1999, Andrew Motion has been
tireless in his efforts to raise the profile of poetry. In this
wonderful anthology, he has brought together an extraordinary range
of poems, exemplifying his belief that, if we let it, poetry has a
unique power to enrich our lives as it diversifies them. The poems
are arranged in a series of ten concentric rings: Self, Home, Town,
Work, Land, Love, Travel, War, Belief and Space. Each section is
distinct but seeks out resemblances and echoes elsewhere, creating
the impression of an endlessly expanding universe. From Wallace
Stevens to Stevie Smith, Joseph Brodsky to Jo Shapcott, Bob Dylan
to Dylan Thomas, Ben Jonson to Benjamin Zephaniah, Here to Eternity
provides a perfect introduction for new readers and offers
surprising connections and revelations to those who are already
well-versed. the Poet Laureate Includes poems by Wallace Stevens,
Stevie Smith, Jo Shapcott, Bob Dylan, Dylan Thomas, Ben Jonson and
Benjamin Zephaniah, to name but a few Arranged in ten distinct but
interconnected sections, Here to Eternity provides a perfect
introduction to poetry for new readers whilst also offering
something to the already well-versed
