A Barrel of Dried Leaves

A Barrel of Dried Leaves

£9.95 Original price was: £9.95.£5.00Current price is: £5.00.

“A barrel not of laughs but of contortions, confusions and the occasional dry chortle – and of metre adorned with irregular, sometimes internal rhymes, assonances, alliterations, awkwardnesses and other such trickery unfashionable to the current academic ear, and not a murmur of the poet’s inner angst, failed loves or fortitude.”
