Sharing what he’s learnt during half a century’s creative work, John
Greening gives us an insight into the life of a poet, playwright,
editor, reviewer, teacher and performer. Eminently readable, amusing
and informative, A High Calling is a rich resource for anyone with an
interest in good writing.
Navigating a wide-ranging career, including a spell as a children’s
magician and a time at the BBC with musicologist Hans Keller, as well
as years spent living in Upper Egypt, we are taken on a journey around
the globe and through time and literature. With an extraordinary cast
of poets, including correspondence with Ted Hughes and a meeting with
Seamus Heaney at Little Gidding, Greening paints a compelling portrait
of the lives behind the writers we meet.
Rich in anecdote and literary insight and interwoven with
autobiographical sketches and original poems, A High Calling is
anything but lofty in its approach, and is chock-full with
down-to-earth advice for readers and writers.
