The Collected Poems of Kathleen Raine

In compiling her Collected Poems Kathleen Raine drew from six decades of poetry to decide the canon by which she wished to be judged and remembered. The result was this definitive edition now published by Faber & Faber which on first release in 2001 was welcomed both by Raine''s admirers and by those newly discovering a poet who has unfailingly given voice to a vision of life in which the temporal in all its modes and places is imbued with the numinous and the eternal.
