4.0 out of 5 stars Poetry for the zeroes, April 12, 2000
This review is from: Packing Up for Paradise: Selected Poems 1946-1996 (Paperback)
This compilation covers an extraordinary 50 years of poetry from James Broughton. Unlike most poets of the twentieth century, Broughton actually writes rhymed poems. They work, too. He has a lyrical touch missing from most modern poetry. He also writes free verse. These poems are a celebration of life. Also being a filmmaker, Broughton is able to convey strong visuals in his verse. He celebrates sex and love and living life large. His playfullness with language is an absolute delight. This retrospect does an outstanding job of highlighting a long and brilliant career.
