Description

Lynette Roberts' Collected Poems is a rare opportunity to experience the work of a pioneering modernist poet. Her poetry explores two distinct scales: the mythic and the domestic, reflecting her unique perspective as both a Welsh writer and a woman poet.

Roberts' writing is characterized by its haunting beauty and experimental style, which has been compared to that of notable contemporaries such as David Jones, R.S. Thomas, and Dylan Thomas. This collection brings together her most significant poems, offering a glimpse into the life and work of a writer who was ahead of her time.

First published in 1954, this volume is being reissued for the first time in over 50 years, making it an exciting discovery for readers interested in modernist poetry and the work of lesser-known female writers.
