	PlanetPapers - Wish You Were Here
		Raine is encouraging us to appreciate the delicate wealth and richness, joy and sadness that literature can bring us and to not be void or lacking of emotion in our haste.
		Raine has split these two stanzas with a caesura so that the pattern is still in keeping of an enjambment of three double stanzas per extended metaphor, to keep the balance.
		Raine wrote the poem in 1979, already in his thirties and observing the incline of modern technology and materialism.

	Literary Encyclopedia: Raine, Craig
		Raine’s imagistic reconditioning of a lifeless cliché replaces the subjunctive tense of What if...?” with the present tense, and in the process he provides an unmistakably contemporary representation of human social alienation.
		Raine’s adaptations of works by Dante, Arthur Rimbaud and Marina Tsvetayeva use previous poems as points of departure to explore the themes of emotional stimulation and sexual passion that overarch his career.
		Through the book’s chronological arrangement, spanning 1905-1984, Raine portrays this fictional family history against the backdrop of the twentieth century; well-known historical figures and near-anonymous individuals are placed in close proximity, blurring the boundaries between public and private lives.

		As a poet the youngish Craig Raine was on fire, metaphorically speaking.
		Raine is right to damn much of Joseph Brodsky's output, but his failure explicitly to exempt A Part of Speech from this judgment indicates a willingness to fudge in the interest of polemical cudgelling.
		As mediated by Raine, Eliot's subtle remark is used - coarsely - to suggest that a preoccupation with ideas is a symptom of artistic coarseness.

		Craig Raine's poetry never seemed to partake of that: I can't imagine him green.
		Raine's criticism, in the second of these gargantuan volumes, serves his poetry much more than most poets' criticism does, but, in its favour, you don't have to subscribe to the greatness of the poetry to enjoy and profit from at least some of the reviews and talks (rather grandly left unspecified) collected here.
		It is easy to imagine they were all written by Raine; literature comes to seem like a huge, shattered mirror in whose shards he sees his own reflection.

		Raine himself says that he was remaking "what the elegy might be in English," a slightly fantastic claim.
		Raine takes great pride in his off-rhymes and in the use of essentially non-metrical lines which together appear like classical couplets.
		Note that the criticism is not directed at Raine's various physical descriptions of himself or of the anonymous lover.

	Essay on "A Martian Sends A Postcard Home" by Craig Raine.
		Throughout Craig Raine's seventeen-stanza poem several functional devices become apparent with defamiliarisation being the most prominent.
		Raine also utilises alienation to enable the audience to observe Earth and human behaviour from a Martian's "alien" point of view.
		Marxist theories aid in the interpretation of this poem in that Raine suggests that the printing presses rule the world- or at least its censorship.

	Glasgow Citizens Theatre - "1953"
		For the rational and classical austerity of language which Racine's characters deploy with such violent eloquence, Raine has sutstituted the literate and urbane style of modern English high-class parlance, often ironic and sometimes effete.
		What Raine does is to transpose the story of Andromaque, the capured widow of the Trojan hero Hector to Rome in the year 1953.
		Raine's flinty, agile poetry, a fluent mix of contrasting metre, ingenious rhyming, regional variations and fruity slang, is ignited by the concentration of the performances, which are notably led by Greg Hicks as the emotionally unstable Orestes, a callously impulsive Nazi general.

		Craig Raine established his name as a poet with A Martian Sends a Postcard Home (1979), which inspired what came to be called the ‘Martian school’ of poetry, poets such as Raine’s former Oxford-pupil Christopher Reid, who describe the world as if seen through the eyes of extraterrestrial beings.

	Variety.com - Reviews - 1953
		In adapting and updating Racine's 1667 "Andromaque," poet Craig Raine mutates the innate rigor of neo-classical French alexandrines into a language at once highbrow and lowdown.
		In Raine's revisionist hand, Racine's play has been advanced from the aftermath of the Trojan War to post-WWII Rome and the Mussolini Palace.
		Raine's rhetoric is high-flown to a fault and then suddenly down and dirty, as if to prove these are real people, too, even if they do pose rhetorical questions about Hegelian dialectic.

		Raine said, though, that he sympathized with the laureate's enforced inoffensiveness.
