After a decade concentrating on his distinctive versions of Italian
classics, Peter Hughes moves on to this collection of poetry
crystallising out of extended stays in Cambridge and Berlin. Of
Peter's previous work Kelvin Corcoran has written: `I turn the new
pages and am in bliss with the pertinence and grace of the living
language'. John Hall commented: `Read it, in the expectation of any
number of lyrical pleasures, for the ear, for the play of line
against continuous movement, for its celebration of remembered
pleasures, for its good will and for its wit. By this last, I mean
a mind in evidence in the poems that can constantly surprise itself
in the turns of speech, that can dance in the syllables and still
have world and experience in its sights.'
