OVER VALES AND HILLS: The Illustrated PoetrySELECTED BY FIONA WATERS Book Number: 71602 Product format: HardbackReaders, used to dazzling colour, may blanch at the thought of Nature photos in b/w only, but we hasten to reassure them that these are something very special indeed. The subtleties of light and shade are astonishing and, as with some of the world's most loved films, the eye soon comes to appreciate the patterns and the contrasts achieved with black and white alone. The picture of a snowy landscape that accompanies Charles Tomlinson's Winter-Piece, for instance, is breathtaking. The poems, too, are all that you would expect from a prize-winning anthologist. They include gems from familiar poets such as Chaucer, Marlowe, Wordsworth, Frost, Hardy and Housman, as well as a selection of works by contemporary poets, who view our world from a 21st century perspective. The countryside has, over the centuries, inspired generations of poets to produce some of the very finest literary works and here are 100 outstanding pieces with timeless vintage photos especially chosen to complement them. 192 pages 23.5cm x 24cm with index of first lines and list of titles.
