		One might suspect that the book was of Nicholson’s fashioning were he not always…determined that all his writings should go forth under his own name, and had he not contributed a Foreward to ‘Newman’s’ book" (d’Arch Smith, Love in Earnest, pp.144-5).
		The book is dedicated to a young boy, Norman, and includes a photographic frontispiece of a young boy, which was incorporated, most likely, merely for the prurient interest it might arouse.

		With this book, and the experiences of "2-3-74," as he called them, Dick felt he had joined a secret, ongoing cosmic battle between good and evil, and had been granted insight into the nature of the gods and reality.
		Thus the book is both a personal memoir and a small but important piece of social history, tracking the medical profession's developing knowledge of this disease over the years.
		A play in verse, considered by many his best, and his first to be published after he won the Nobel Prize for Literature in 1948.

	MH Book Review—Paul Muldoon's SIXTY INSTANT MEESSAGES TO TOM MOORE
		The hint of nostalgia is very faint, but is echoed in verse V, by a mention of “the auld sod.” Though one of the islands of Bermuda is called Ireland, it is notable that the poet here locates himself on neither side of the Atlantic.
		In Muldoon’s verse, however, it is the sputtering of the boat engine that we register, in preparation for the rhyme.
		The range of reference in these verses, drawn from the poet’s formidable reading, may be broader than we expect from English haiku, yet there are haiku poets in Japan who are just as playful and as complex as Muldoon.

	The Alsop Review
		The books that either win or are short-listed for the top prizes in England today (not including Ireland's Seamus Heaney or the aforementioned Hughes) often show a rootless poetic — unrehearsed craft at work, sloppy intellectual or emotional conceits, sometimes breezy, sometimes jarring, rarely effective musicality — that usually falls hard on its self-conscious face.
		In short, the poets of the British Empire that have followed the relentlessly experimental muse of Modernism have disembodied the art of poetry from the corpus of cultural dialogue.
		Not surprisingly, one of the two Faber & Faber books published recently was awarded the much-touted, you guessed it, T.S. Eliot Poetry Award.

	Longfellow & the fate of modern poetry by John Derbyshire
		Much more likely, in my opinion, it is because modern poets are intellectuals, who are expected to have some well-turned ideas about form, system, method, and, of course, politics, and that this precludes them from having commonplace thoughts, or from being willing to express such thoughts in verse.
		The book included a picture of a mountain on whose side the snow lies in two long furrows to make the image of a vast cross.
		By this time the book had advanced to a fourth edition (1978), and I was dismayed to see that the lessons on scansion, which in the second edition were part of the main text, in the fourth had been relegated to an appendix!

	Island of Freedom - Thomas Stearns Eliot
		As a young poet Eliot found inspiration in French Symbolist poetry, particularly the ironic, self-deprecating verse of Jules Laforgue, and in the flexible, colloquial blank verse of the 17th-century metaphysical poets and Jacobean dramatists.
		Pound regarded Eliot as a truly modern poet who had developed an extraordinarily original idiom that fused tradition and superior learning with the contemporary and colloquial.
		Other works include Old Possum's Book of Practical Cats (1939), a book of verse for children that was eventually adapted for the musical theater stage; the play Sweeney Agonistes (1932), and the prose works The Idea of a Christian Society (1940) and Notes Toward a Definition of Culture (1948).
