This text brings together Clare's longest poem, "The Parish", and
his satires, "The Hue and Cry" and "The Summons". Other poems, some
previously unpublished, are included. They reveal his reactions to
political and social conditions and events of his age. There are
also prose works and fragments in which he reflects on the issues
of the day included in the collection. A detailed introduction
evokes the larger context of Clare's writings and the difficulties
he faced as a labourer trying to voice the concerns of his class in
a period when such matters were regarded as the exclusive province
of the educated and propertied classes. The book is part of
Carcanet's "John Clare Programme".
