Description
Iris Barry - Impressions and Studies A collection of poetry from one of England's most overlooked poets, Iris Barry. This new edition brings together almost all of her published work from the 1910s and 1920s, offering a unique glimpse into the life and art of this talented writer. Born in Birmingham in 1895, Barry began writing poetry at an early age and was soon discovered by Ezra Pound, who offered to publish some of her work. Her poetry is characterized by its use of free verse and its exploration of themes such as nature and the human condition. This collection showcases Barry's unique voice and style, which was influenced by her experiences as a woman writer in a male-dominated literary world. Barry went on to have a successful career in film criticism, co-founding the Film Society of London and writing one of the early classics of English-language film theory. However, it is her poetry that remains her most enduring legacy, offering a fascinating glimpse into the life and work of this talented writer.
