Soft cover. Condición: Very Good. 1st Edition. "Love in a Life" is the sixth volume of poetry by Andrew Motion, the founder of the Modern Narrative School. This is the 1991 First Paperback Edition, published by Faber and Faber in London. From the back cover blurb: "LOVE IN A LIFE marks a conspicuous development in the work of Andrew Motion. Directness and a new colloquialism are wedded to Motion's distinctive obliquities in a volume where the idea of a marriage governs the architecture of each poem and the book as a whole. The stories of two marriages gradually emerge, like chapters in a narrative, and are themselves bound to more public material, so that each lends profound resonances to the other." Motion was Poet Laureate to the United Kingdom from 1999 to 2009.

This facsimile reproduction of the 1861 edition makes Palgrave's original selection available once again for today's readers.
