Details
Peter Levi’s first book since `Collected Poems 1955-1975’ contains his poems written between spring 1975 and winter 1977. Of his `Collected Poems 1955-1975’, John Heath-Stubbs wrote in `The Tablet’: `His is certainly one of the most authentic and original, perhaps one of the few major talents of his generation.’
Peter Levi, who died in 2000, was elected Professor of Poetry at Oxford University in 1984. Until 1977 he was a Jesuit priest. He was a classicist whose writing includes three uncategorizable books - on modern Greece, Afghanistan, and the English landscape - as well as translations, critical and scholarly works, and a thriller. But he was first and foremost a poet.
