Warren
Hope's poems have appeared from time to time in a number of literary
periodicals, pamphlets, and anthologies on both sides of the Atlantic.
They appeal to lovers of poetry everywhere. His poems are brief, clear,
frequently lyrical, characterised by wit, but often distinguished
by tenderness. The poems gathered in this first book-length collection
counter the brutalising ethos of contemporary life, speaking of and
for the virtues of modesty, honesty, and gentleness in an individual,
memorable way.
