'I write about love, I write about friendship,' remarked Thom Gunn:
'I find that they are absolutely intertwined.' These core values
permeate his correspondence with friends, family, lovers, and
fellow poets, and shed new light on 'one of the most singular and
compelling poets in English during the past half-century' (Times
Literary Supplement). These letters reveal the evolution of Gunn's
work and illuminate the fascinating life that informed his poems:
his struggle to come to terms with his mother's suicide; his
changing relationship with his life partner, Mike Kitay; the LSD
trips that led to his celebrated collection Moly (1971); and the
deaths of friends from AIDS that inspired the powerful, unsparing
elegies of The Man with Night Sweats (1992).
