Days:
An Anthology of Poetry about Fields. Foreword by Adam Nicolson.
Published in association with Common Ground. Green Books, 1998.
[Contains
four Gurney poems, Brown Earth Look, Friendly are meadows, In
December,
Up There. “A lovely anthology.” In his introduction,
Adam
Nicholson singles Gurney out: “The searing Gloucester-surrealist language of a Gurney poem, surely the hero of this anthology, is the equivalent of those places in a field where a hatch of common blues is fluttering over the vetches, or a bunch of rushes at night takes on the outlines of a deer, head bowed to graze.” 144 pp.] GreenBooks*R |
