The Age of Cardboard and String
Beschreibung:
Shortlisted for the 2001 T. S. Eliot and Whitbread Poetry Prizes. A number of poems in this collection by Charles Boyle take their cue from Stendhal, whose characteristic blend of artfulness and candour particularly evident in his unreliable memoirs is sustained throughout the book. In material ranging from intimate narratives to social commentary, Boyle takes selfdeception, mixed motives and honest misunderstandings as the norms of human behaviour, and delights in the comedy of errors that results. The collection was a Poetry Book Society Recommendation.
