This is a collection of essays about, and interviews with, the contemporary British poet, Bill Griffiths. His poetry, written over four decades, is wide-ranging in tone, subject, practice and effect, dealing with anything from London, prison, hospital, colonial history, boats, cartoons, old English and dialect poetry, or the classics. Griffiths has long been celebrated as a leading figure of the British Poetry Revival, yet this is to underestimate the continuing impact of this exciting and accessible writer. These essays aim to help ordinary readers and students gain insight into Griffiths's astonishing jewel-like lyrics and to re-situate him in the mainstream of British poetry.
