Reseña del libro "Peter Dale in Conversation with Cynthia Haven (en Inglés)"
Thirteenth volume in an acclaimed series of book-length interviews with leading contemporary poets. "Peter Dale is the long-distance runner of his generation" - Grey Gowrie Dale talks in detail about his life, his work and his literary friendships. "The subsuming principle for all Dale's poetry is relationship. Because of his preoccupation with relationships, rather than the isolated self that dominates much contemporary writing, Dale's is a particularly civilized and constructive poetry. The subjective turns that do occurr in his poems always include another person, indeed take much of their meaning from that other person." - Wyatt Prunty in Contemporary Poets, 1983 Peter Dale is one of the UK's most distinguished literary figures, a poet, translator and editor, and this book comes complete with four new poems, a comprehensive bibliography, several pages of quotations from Dale's critics and reviewers, and a gallery of photos.
