Notes'English poetry has found a new hero and nobody will be able to read or write verse now without the black shape of Crow falling across the page.' Peter Porter 'Each fresh encounter with despair becomes the occasion for a separate, almost funny, story in which natuaral forces and creatures, mythic figures, even parts of the body, act out their special roles, each endowed with its own irrepressible life. With 'Crow', Hughes joins the select band of survivor-poets whose work is adequate to the destructive reality we inhabit.' A. Alvarez
