'The Last Blackbird' and Other Poems

Résumé du livre

Ralph Hodgson, although becoming first popular in the Georgian period, actually transcends Georgeiana. He wrote strong and relevant poetry displaying an epigrammatic and lyrical power. His sympathy for nature and animals will resonate with the modern reader. The 'Song of Honour' can be compared to Christopher Smart, and 'The Bull' to John Clare's work.
