Description
Peter Redgrove was not only a prolific poet but an indefatigable writer of prose, both imaginative and discursive, He was also an extremely responsive and articulate interviewee. His imaginative prose is fully represented in the other volumes of the 'Peter Redgrove Library': in this collection of essays and interviews are pieces that reflect on his childhood, education and marriages; on his own poetry and the writing of others who were especially important to him; and on his passionate involvement with science and religion, and his attempt to forge a world-view that integrated the two.

Peter Redgrove (1932-2003) lived in Cornwall from the mid-1960s. One of the most consistently remarkable English poets of the post-war period, he was the author of over thirty verse collections and ten works of fiction, as well as plays and works of non-fiction. His collections include Selected Poems (Cape, London, 1999), and From the Virgil Caverns (Cape, 2002). The posthumous collections Sheen (Stride) and The Harper (Cape), were further evidence that his craft had not diminished with age. A Collected Poems appeared from Cape in 2011.
