'The most compelling, original, charismatic and poetic guide to
poetry that I can remember. A handbook written from the heart by
one of the true modern masters of the craft.' Simon Armitage A
collection of short essays and reflections on poetry from the
acclaimed British poet Glyn Maxwell. These essays illustrate
Maxwell's poetic philosophy, that the greatest verse arises from a
harmony of mind and body, and that poetic forms originate in human
necessities - breath, heartbeat, footstep, posture. He speaks of
his inspirations, his models, and takes us inside the strange world
of the Creative Writing Class, where four young hopefuls grapple
with love, sex, cheap wine and hard work. With examples from
canonical poets, this is a beautiful, accessible guide to the most
ancient and sublime of the realms of literature.
