Description

Book Synopsis

The first in-depth study of Gillian Clarke's work in the twenty-first century, reframing our understanding of her poetry and prose.

Despite being one of Wales's most celebrated poets, much of Gillian Clarke's writing and its depth and range remain unexplored. New Perspectives on Gillian Clarke is the first book-length study to examine her poetry and journal writings in their entirety, offering fresh insight into the evolution of her work over the decades.

The book highlights Clarke's engagement with the pressing global themes of community, climate change, cosmology, and conflict. Through close analysis, Linden Peach sheds light on Clarke's political and scientific awareness alongside her literary artistry and presents her as an innovative and socially conscious writer whose poetry resonates far beyond Wales. A must-read for scholars and poetry lovers alike, New Perspectives on Gillian Clarke reaffirms her place as a vital voice in contemporary literature and a poet of global significance.
