William Critchley

Opis

'Late Poems' from William Critchley with occasional references (homages) to poets such as Auden, Baudelaire and Spender, and at least one paean to Sappho, the 'tenth muse'. Most of his subjects allude to muses in one form or another, either in or out of relationships, lost or unavailable loves as well as others. 'Love Shook My Heart Too' pays tribute to one of Sappho's most celebrated fragments of poetry; and just as she predicted (that she would be remembered in time to come), Critchley ends his poem: 'Some have forgotten you/But I have remembered you/in another time.'
