I've just finished reading 'P...Dear George<br /><br />I've just finished reading 'Poetry Notebook: 2006-2014' by Clive James. I found it a fascinating if slightly conservative account of the development of English poetry in the twentieth century. I actually found it far more illuminating than Michael Schmidt's 'Lives of the Poets' which is five times as long. If you haven't already read it, then I heartily recommend it.<br /><br />Best wishes from Simon R.
