Sinossi
R.N. Currey's poetry records what happens to men in war and life. This is a collection of poems by the poet and writer R.N. Currey. Born in Mafeking in 1907, R.N. Currey was a soldier, poet and at one time a school teacher in Colchester. R.N. Currey is a poet who has pleased poets: T.S.Eliot told him in 1945 that his collection This Other Planet was 'the best war poetry I have seen in these last six years'; Dylan Thomas was so taken with the wit of 'Pelican, St James's Park' that he recited it from memory on a traffic island in front of the BBC just after he had met R.N. Currey for the first time; Roy Campbell, Guy Butler and Jack Cope claimed his work for South Africa.

Recensione
Until now, R.N. Currey's reputation has depended too much on the handful of poems which appear in anthologies (for instance, 'Unseen Fire' from This Other Planet) and one hopes that this collection will change that. - C.J. Driver in THE TIMES LITERARY SUPPLEMENT

Collected Poems

Valutazione del venditore 5 su 5 stelle
Hardcover. Condizione: Very Good. Condizione sovraccoperta: Very Good. Spine slightly bumped, jacket has light creases and scuffs as well as a bit of wear along the edges. This appears to have been signed by the poet, in a very shaky hand, on the title page, but I am unsure if the timing of this publication, in the last year of his life, would have truly permitted such a thing. Happy to provide a photograph upon request. Codice articolo 009822
