This collection includes Robertson's version of Ovid, "The Flaying of Marsyas", and "Camera Obscura", in which he uses the imagined diary of David Octavius Hill, counterpointed by a narrative of the city of Edinburgh, to portray a life in crisis and the last flowering of the Scottish enlightenment.
レビュー
-
Ancient celtic bardic tradition alive and well
The only poet of true power and command of language worth reading nowadays.

Critic I am not .
I am not equipped to do reviews. I like poetry but that does not make me a critic. Poetry most of all. Poetry is totally subjective... .and should b. I can say I like something , but that is of no help for someone who has demands in reading a legitimate review by some one with the background and education to give the public an opinion. Opinion, of itself, is not criticism.

but I like that!
Have 'The Spanish Dancer' & 'II. Defrosting' as poems that capture the event well. Some poems are beyond me, but I like that!
