Description

Thom Gunn (1929-2004) was educated at Cambridge University, and had his first collection of poems, Fighting Terms, published while still an undergraduate. He moved to northern California in 1954 and taught in American universities until his death. His last collection was Boss Cupid (2000).

In this series, a contemporary poet selects and introduces a poet of the past. By their choice of poems and by the personal and critical reactions they express in their prefaces, the editors offer insights into their own work as well as providing an accessible and passionate introduction to some of the greatest poets of our literature.



Thom Gunn poems, selected by August Kleinzahler, as one of six new additions to the acclaimed Poet to Poet series.

About the Author
August Kleinzahler was born in Jersey City in 1949. He is the author of eleven books of poems, most recently The Strange Hours Travelers Keep. He lives in San Francisco.

Reviews
"'Faber has a poetry list worth bragging about. What other publisher could conjure up a series like this?' The Times"

The shipping was just superior

The shipping was just superior; not even one of the books was in contact with the shipping box -anywhere-, not even a corner or the bottom, so all the books arrived in perfect condition. The international shipping took around 2 weeks, so pretty great too.

Found a hard to get book…

Finding a hard to get book on Booksplease and with it not being an over inflated price was great. Ordering was really easy with updates on despatch. The book was packaged well and in great condition. I will certainly use them again.
