Description

Both stimulating and engaging, these poems display an astonishing capacity for wit, rich observations, and the cadences of poetic language. Documenting the life of Sylvia Townsend Warner, these poems emphasize her gift for music while exploring life, communist sympathies, and above all, the anguish and liberation of her great love affair with fellow poet Valentine Ackland.
