	Carcanet Press - Lynette Roberts, Collected Poems - Zoë Skoulding, Poetry Wales
		Born in 1909 in Argentina of Welsh-descended Australian parents, Roberts wrote most of the poems published here in the 1940s; in 1956 she had a breakdown, became a Jehovah's Witness and stopped writing for the rest of her life.
		It's also the result of a strong emphasis on the visual: Roberts was a painter though, her writing has closer parallels with paintings by Paul Nash, who, like Roberts, was influenced by film in his control of space and form.
		However, although her perspective is partly that of a woman in one particular wartime village, her voracious inclusion of scientific, technological and archaic registers extends the scope of her writing far beyond a personal, domestic or local focus.

	I Think Alone, by Steven Matthews
		Roberts was a unique figure, a Welsh poet who was born and lived her young childhood in Argentina.
		Roberts is a strikingly ambitious poet, given the brevity of her writing life; ambitious in her use of form to enhance the vigour of the poetry's speaking voice.
		In both cases, Roberts writes to her lauded male contemporaries as at least an equal: resisting some of Eliot's suggestions for verbal changes in her work and drawing upon some of her comprehensive knowledge of local myth and legend to inform Graves at the time he was working on The White Goddess.

	Lynette Roberts
		Lynette Robers and Steve Ulvi taken in front of their homestead in Yukon-Charley.
		Steve's employment with the National Park Service was a source of resentment among some of the people of Eagle, and Lynette talks about some of the hostility expressed towards her and her family.
		This is not to say that Lynette's loyalties must be considered as if she was a Park Service employee.

	Lynette Roberts
		Lynette Roberts was born in Buenos Aires 4 July 1909 to an Australian family of Welsh descent.
		Roberts then was an informed but as yet unformed poet when, breaking off her engagement to a self-styled model for James Bond, she met the Welsh poet and editor William Ronald Rees Jones at a Poetry London event organised by Tambimuttu in 1939.
		Lynette requires her readers to have a dictionary handy - she creates a vocabulary for each poem in the way a painter selects a palette and delights in the availability of a new colour.

		Robert Graves was one of the poets originally solicited by Charles Abbott.
		Also a part of the collection are his correspondence to Lynette Roberts, which traces the formation of The White Goddess (1948), and hundreds of other letters to and from other poets.
		When Martin Seymour Smith's biography, Robert Graves: His Life and Work (1982), appeared, the Poetry Collection was able to acquire the working papers, including notes, photocopies of subsequently missing or destroyed materials, hundreds of letters from poets and acquaintances of Graves, and the unexpurgated version of the biography itself.

	Transcript (English)
		Roberts Graves, who drew on her expertise as he researched for The White Goddess, wrote: 'Lynette Roberts is one of the few true poets now writing.
		Roberts was not the first to imagine poetry and film joined - Auden and Britten had collaborated in the mid-thirties on GPO films such as 'Night Mail' and 'Coal Face' (1936).
		Though Roberts may certainly have learned something from their approach, theirs was a collaboration: Britten wrote a score to accompany lines by Auden which are no more or less intrinsically 'filmic' for being written for film.

	Review: Collected Poems by Lynette Roberts \| By genre \| Guardian Unlimited Books
		Exotic, daring, larger than life, Roberts shone throughout the 1940s, impressing such diverse figures as Robert Graves, TS Eliot, Edith Sitwell and Alun Lewis.
		Roberts was born in 1909 in Buenos Aires to a family with strong Welsh traditions, and in many ways her marriage and the subsequent move from London to the village of Llanybri was an attempt to move to a kind of homeland.
		It was an event that was fraught with tensions, but one that enabled her to produce, in just over a decade, an extraordinary and unique body of work.

		A major event in the poetry world: the Carcanet edition of Lynette Roberts is finally out.
		A posthumous attempt at an edition from Seren Books was scuttled when the Roberts estate objected to some factual errors in the preface and took legal action; the entire run was pulped, barring the odd copy that escaped.
		Now that Roberts is removed from the list of most-needing-a-decent-edition, her place is taken by Rosemary Tonks.

		The word "cartoon," I think, was used as he thought about references to Greek myth in the poems, and this became an issue, though the paper was thoughtful and ultimately flattering.

	New Welsh Review editorial - War Archives (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-09-17)
		The difficulty with not having a broadsheet media in Wales is that it’s almost impossible to track these kind of debates and engaged protests here because there is simply very little space in which they can happen in the first place.
		Welsh Writing in English is still a ‘young’ field of study which needs all the help it can get: anything which brings critical work to as broad an audience as possible can only be a good thing.
		And if it releases a poet like Lynette Roberts from the shadowy recesses of the library stacks to which posterity seems to have consigned her, then that would be a bonus.

	Jacket 15 - Richard Caddel reviews Keith Tuma (ed.): Anthology of Twentieth-Century British & Irish Poetry
		Tuma shows by his selection how ludicrous such a statement is, and how misleading it is when such prejudices are allowed to go unchallenged.
		There just isn’t, at this point, a realistic chance that even committed readers could get to read Roberts’ exciting, elliptical and important work, and the new, young readers who Tuma wishes to inspire to further reading will, as things stand, be frustrated.
		A further lofty ambition for this anthology might be, therefore, that it could stimulate the interest required for a publisher — with the support of poets’ estates where needed — to bring a writer like Roberts back into print.
