Selected Poems Bewertungen
Redgrove is thunderously, exhilaratingly good -- Adam Thorpe He is recognised today as one of the few poets capable of sustained rapture, a heirophant of alchemical mysteries, chronicler of sexual ecstasies, witness to sensual, synaesthetic delights beyond the reach of most of us -- Gerard Woodward Redgrove's strengths are a clairvoyant creativity, glittering images and glittering risk...wonderful imaginative leaps of seeing, glancing epiphanies...or sustained surrealities which etch the surprisingness of the world -- Ruth Padel I would use the old-fashioned term genius of Redgrove -- Anthony Thwaite
