Eric Gregory Award

A wonderful collection of what was billed as Great Britain's most popular poetry, sent to me by a friend in the UK. A lot of really good writing by a variety of poets about living in the modern world. A number of the poets included were already familiar to me (e.g., Marge Peircy, Pablo Neruda, Billy Collins, Philip Larkin, C.P. Cavafy, Mark Doty, Sylvia Plath, et al.), but there were many whose other works will be seeking out (e.g., Denise Levertov, Carole Satyamurti, Kerry Hardie, et al.).

A sequel to the collection of purported British poetry favorites. Such excellent poems collected here. A gift from a friend in the UK. ❤
