Paperback. Condición: New. A Telegraph Book of the Year 2024In Conjurors, a major poet is revealed for the first time. Julian Orde (1917-74) published only in magazines during her lifetime. A friend of Stevie Smith and an intimate of Dylan Thomas and W.S. Graham, she was one of those 'peripheral figures' who turns out to be a centre in her own right. Her evolving worlds and changing landscapes as a writer come alive in these substantial, unexpected poems. Her lyrical surrealism is prophetic and retains its charge:The speckled water rippled into minnows,Of worms and turf smelt all the fish pale morning,Earth pushed up its smell of worms through grass and wet,Through sodden leaf, mushroom and winking frog.I, on the bank, lived quick as breathing frog,Its lungs and mine puffed out September's thinMorning, sallow and silver, fish-filled, the sky in a river.Wherever I go in the guilty years there stillGoes my innocence with me [.]William Empson celebrated her. 'Wonder at nature, wonder at all experience, is her note, and she gets a great deal of variety into it; also she has a beautiful ear, and a supply of unforced humour.'The editor of PN Review said, 'It's hard to imagine the middle of the twentieth century now without Julian Orde.' Carcanet's recovery of her work - thanks to the patient archaelogy of James Keery and V. Beatson - proves that the past, even the relatively recent past, is at least as rich in resource and surprise as the present.…

Paperback. Condición: New. Burns Singer spent the 1950's gaining and losing a reputation. He became an Insider, notably as the writer of Times Literary Supplement leaders, yet considered himself in many respects an Outsider, alienating a whole generation of young editors and fellow poets. His attitude to the Movement was one of contempt, expressed at parties, in pubs and in print. His deepest sympathies were with the Apocalyptics of the 1940s. W.S. Graham, George Barker and Dylan Thomas were influences that he absorbed and outgrew, but never repudiated. His poetry, in fact, fuses Apocalyptic sublimity with the principled intelligence of the Movement. 'The Transparent Prisoner' is a major contribution to the poetry of the Second World War, a narrative of distinction, based on experiences of an escaped PoW. 'Still and All', the title poem of Singer's one collection, beautifully distils his 'ways/Of speech'. Singer can be as mocking, down-to- earth and up-to-date as Larkin or Amis, but the theme to which he invariably returns is immortality - in his own haunting words, 'The least of things and least preposterous/Of the infinities that robe you round'. This edition reprints most of Collected Poems (1970), adding uncollected and unpublished poems. The work is arranged (as far as possible) chronologically, with an introduction and note on the text.…

Among the poems which appear in print here for the first time is one consisting of two untitled lines, handwritten on the back of a 1963 review slip: "I said I'd meet you on the other side/Of all this clutter & I did set out". At last Burns Singer has arrived. This edition contains a huge amount of uncollected and unpublished poems. The theme of immortality is invariably evident, with an introduction and notes on the text.

Paperback. Condición: New. Shortlisted for the Scottish Poetry Book of the Year 2021. This first anthology of 'Apocalyptic' or neo-romantic poetry since the nineteen-forties includes over 150 poets, many well known (Dylan Thomas, W.S. Graham), and others quite forgotten (Ernest Frost, Paul Potts). Over forty of the poets are women, of whom Edith Sitwell is among the most exuberant. Much of the contents has never previously been anthologised; many poems are reprinted for the first time since the 1940s. The poetry of the Second World War appears in a new context, as do early Tomlisnon and Hill. Here readers can enjoy an overview of the visionary-modernist British and Irish poetry of the mid-century, its antecedents and its aftermath. As a period style and as a body of work, Apocalyptic poetry will come as a revelation to most readers. …
