This book examines the literary impact of famed British poet, Barry
MacSweeney, who worked at the forefront of poetic discovery in
post-war Britain. Agitated equally by politics and the
possibilities of artistic experimentation, Barry MacSweeney was
ridiculed in the press, his literary reputation only recovering
towards the end of his life which was cut short by alcoholism. With
close readings of MacSweeney alongside his contemporaries,
precursors, and influences, including J.H. Prynne, Shelley, Jack
Spicer, and Sylvia Plath, Luke Roberts offers a fresh introduction
to the field of modern poetry. Richly detailed with archival and
bibliographic research, this book recovers the social and political
context of MacSweeney's exciting, challenging, and controversial
impact on modern and contemporary poetry.
