Riassunto

The T.E. Lawrence Poems is Gwendolyn MacEwen&;s most integrated, complete and respected work. It is now recognized as her signature poetic achievement.&;In 1962, I was staying in a hotel in Tiberias, Israel; the tall, white-haired proprietor invited me downstairs one evening and served me syrupy tea and a plate of fruit. He showed me a series of old sepiatone photographs which lined the walls &; photographs of blurred riders on camels riding to the left into some uncharted desert just beyond the door. Some of them were signed.&;It&;s Lawrence isn&;t it?&; I asked, walking up to one.&;Yes,&; said my host, offering me a huge section of an orange. &;I rode with him once a long time ago. I see you always carry a pen and paper to write things down. I thought you&;d be interested; I thought you&;d like to know.&;These poems were written some twenty years later.&;
