Collected Poems: Sally Purcell by Sally Purcell
A collection of poems of a poet whose works often drew on folklore and mediaeval sources.
,." Sally's prodigious range of allusion is light-fingered; and always voiced through her own unique sensibility. Her wide knowledge lives in the delicate mesh of her language... The poems seem to me to grow stronger, with some of the finest of all among the uncollected found after her death." - from the Preface by Marina Warner
