Overview
Overview
One of the best-known and most highly regarded English poets of his generation. This collection includes many references to his American experiences. In his title poem Crossley-Holland notes that the mainspring of affirmation is curiosity and writes of his intention of singing 'the language of yes'. These confident poems, songs of revelation and praise, are distinguished by sharp imagery and strong craftsmanship. They embrace the diverse subjects of childhood, love, fatherhood, old age, ancient cultures, elisions of time, Minnesotan snowscapes, Cretan sunscapes, music and musicians, and the power of language.
