Samenvatting

Sarah Broom provides an engaging, challenging and lively introduction to contemporary British and Irish poetry. The book covers work by poets from a wide range of ethnic and regional backgrounds and covers a broad range of poetic styles, including mainstream names like Seamus Heaney and Carol Ann Duffy alongside more marginal and experimental poets like Tom Raworth and Geraldine Monk. Contemporary British and Irish Poetry tackles the most compelling and contentious issues facing poetry today.

Recensie(s)

'A significant contribution to discussion of the key debates around contemporary poetry. Broom is to be congratulated for handling the issues with such clarity and fluency.' - Steven Matthews, Oxford Brookes University, UK 'A handy tool for undergraduates, as it presents issues of gender, nation, class and poetic form in a methodical and lucid way.' - Justin Quinn, Year's Work in English Studies
