The Collected Poems of Ursula Bethell

0/5 ( ratings)

Mystical religious/landscape poet from New Zealand. Better than Gerard Manly Hopkins. Utterly unique, but slightly influenced by the Chinese poems of Arthur Waley. The most beautifully described garden in the English language. Fusion of intensely personal mystical and sensuous/emotional experience. Fascinated by words and their connotations. Anglican in temper, but very individual. Far more concerned with actual experience than with doctrine. Her poems repay many re-readings.Quietly humorous, but never cute - can spring breathtaking surprises.

Language: English

Pages: 225
