Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Star-Dust "The Flagship. By Trevor Blakemore. (Cloth, 97 pp. Erskine MacDonald. 4s. 6d. net.) The war poems strike a deep and a true note. Not content with shouting about the obvious, they reveal the inward causes and speak of the larger issues of the great conflict. They are entitled to a place among the few worthy poems that have been written on the war. Mention must be made of the charming love lyrics of which Oblivion is a beautiful example, so gay as it is, and fragrant with earth-sweetness. Indeed, perhaps Mr. Blakemore´s power of calling up vivid pictures of various aspects of nature is his most striking quality." "Apropos of Sir Sidney Colvin´s recent lecture on Suggestion and Condensation in Poetry" and of the emphasis he laid on Keats unrivalled power of vivid Nature description it is interesting to note Mr. Blakemore´s gifts in this respect." - The Poetry Review "We welcome another volume of verses by Trevor Blakemore, who has already gained a niche among the younger Georgian poets. "The Flagship" - the title of the book is taken from the first poem is hardly an index to the character of Mr. Blakemore´s poems - which carry us for the most part down sylvian and idyllic paths, far from the stress of war. But the most notable work, the poem called "Intercession," which appeared in the Times, deals with the all-absorbing topic. It has a note of inspiration, which marks it as a considerable achievement. The other poems deal with man and nature in varying moods, and Mr. Blakemore in "Sark" and in "Harbour Bells" shows that he possesses the true vision of the sea and "land-locked bays." - Westminster Gazette.
