Betjeman & the Anglican Imagination by Kevin Gardner
The book centres on the most significant influence in the development of Betjeman's poetic imagination and that element of his life that he took most seriously: the Church of England. Elegantly and perceptively written, John Betjeman and the Anglican Imagination leads readers through the rollicking and humorous world of Betjeman's writings to gain a clear, grand picture of the turbulent faith behind one of Britain's most popular recent poets.
Kevin J Gardner is a Professor of English at Baylor University. A Betjeman scholar, he is the editor of Faith and doubt of John Betjeman: An anthology of his religious verse (Continuum, 2005).
