About this book
Reviews
“This thoroughly engaging book shows how literary posterity’s awkward burden of ‘rescuing’ poets like Beddoes, Clare, Darley, and Landon from their perceived obscurity can be transformed into an illuminating discourse of doubt and self-awareness. Stewart helps us to see in these poets’ exquisitely accomplished writing a questioning of the present moment, even as it unfolds and takes flight.” (Michael Bradshaw, John Clare Society Journal, Issue 37, June, 2018)
