This review is from: The Complete Poems of Edwin Muir (ASLS Annual Volumes) (Hardcover)
Edwin Muir is probably better remembered now as the translator of Kafka than as a writer in his own right; but he was a poet of extraordinary range, depth, elegance, and skill, and his poems are among the glories of English language poetry in the twentieth century.
