5.0 out of 5 stars
An underappreciated English poet.,
By Johann Krenel (Brooklyn, New York) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Collected Poems (Paperback)
William Empson is well known for his work in literary criticism and theory, particularly Seven Types of Ambiguity and The Structure of Complex Words, but he began his career as a poet and was at one time considered one of the best young poets in England. His poems are often difficult, occasionally deeply moving, frequently funny, and always brilliantly constructed. In an age when smart, honest poetry is being appreciated once again, Empson's poems deserve our renewed attention.
