Description

Ted Hughes's Moortown Diary is a remarkable collection of poems written over several years as an improvised verse journal. Sparsely edited and coalescing spontaneously on the page, these poems offer a unique glimpse into the natural world and our place within it. The author strips away protective layers to reveal the raw beauty and tenderness that exists just beyond our reach. His language is physical, evoking the sensation of a bruise, and yet he balances this intensity with a sense of sanity and grace. This collection includes some of Hughes's finest poems, which are both intense and beautiful, making for a deeply moving read from start to finish.
