A selection of literary essays written since 1972, this book addresses in detail the work of Dickens, Donne, T. S. Eliot, Coleridge, Dr Johnson, Betjeman, Elizabeth Bishop, Saul Bellow, James Joyce, and many others. Vigilant, sceptical, mistrustful of consensus, Craig Raine stands in the tradition of poet-critics whose task, as Eliot said, is ‘the elucidation of works of art and the correction of taste’.
Craig Raine is one of England's leading poets and critics. Former book editor for New Review and poetry editor at the New Statesman and poetry editor at Faber and Faber, Craig is the founder and editor of literary magazine Areté. He has written a number of poetry collections and a second anthology of reviews and essays, In Defence of T. S. Eliot
