A Cardboard Garage

Francis Sparshott

4.9/5 (31118 ratings)

Description:The verses housed in this cardboard garage date from about 1943 to 1969. The author calls some of them “brittle bodies”: these have the regular metrical and rhyming forms that are still the popular norm for verse in English. The others, called “soft engines”, have irregular shapes imposed by their own inner needs. These are the poems of inner vision rather than of observation. Although they are full of allusions to places where the author has been (the Bruce, central Illinois, the Kent coast and the Somerset hills) and to books he has read, they do not rely on your or his knowledge of them. They are rather concerned to express knotty complexes of thought and feeling in language of a mannered violence. The public anxieties of an age of bombardment shade into the private worries of an obsession with poetry, and in such poems as “Dresden” both become merged in some inner turmoil whose nature is not made clear. Anything but artless, these poems take their stand in that bardic tradition that purports to offer, in return for your attention, words of knowledgeable power.We have made it easy for you to find a PDF Ebooks without any digging.
