In her foreword to All The Poems (2003) Muriel Spark wrote,
'Although most of my life has been devoted to fiction, I have
always thought of myself as a poet. I do not write "poetic" prose,
but feel that my outlook on life and my perceptions of events are
those of a poet.' Including previously uncollected work, this new
edition demonstrates her ear for the rightness of a line and her
eye for the telling detail, her command of poetic forms and her
ability to rise to the different challenges of freer verse. Spark's
poems are witty, idiosyncratic and haunting, transforming the
familiar into glittering moments of strangeness, revealing the dark
- and light - music beneath the mundane.
