Selected Poems, Paperback / softback Book

Selected Poems Paperback / softback

Paperback / softback

Description

Selected Poems draws on Jenny Joseph's first four collections of poetry, The Unlooked-for Season (1960), Rose in the Afternoon (1974), The Thinking Heart (1978) and Beyond Descartes (1983).

The poems explore the duality of existence, a track that runs through all her work, whether for children or adults, in poetry or prose.

Jenny Joseph's Selected Poems includes 'Warning', her much celebrated monologue in which a young woman talks of her fantasies of old age, voted Britain's favourite modern poem in a BBC poll in 2006.
