Ted Hughes has written a series of pieces on writers as diverse as Emily Dickinson, Isaac Bashevis Singer, T. S. Eliot and Sylvia Plath; and on his deep-rooted concern over education, the environment and the arts.
Ted Hughes (1930-1998) was born in Yorkshire. His first book, The Hawk in the Rain, was published in 1957 by Faber & Faber and was followed by many volumes of poetry and prose for adults and children. He received the Whitbread Book of the Year for two consecutive years for his last published collections of poetry, Tales from Ovid and Birthday Letters. He was Poet Laureate from 1984, and in 1998 he was appointed to the Order of Merit.
