‘One of the most eloquent thinkers about our life in language’ – The Sunday Times

Read by the author, Denise Riley

A Chorus of Ears is a series of essays on voice, lyric and the persona of the poet from one of the greatest living English poets. Originally delivered as a lecture series at Trinity College, Cambridge, in A Chorus of Ears Denise Riley meditates upon the emphasis we place upon the persona of the poet, relegating their actual poetry to a second-order importance. Prize culture and the primacy of the poet – as opposed to the poem – transform criticism into a beauty contest, constraining our ability to meet the lyric on its own terms.

What, Riley asks, might be discovered about the purpose of poetry, its originary point within our language and more yet besides, when we liberate it from the persona of the author? In allowing the poem to speak, what might we hear?

Including a foreword by leading poet and critic Don Paterson.

批評家のレビュー

This is a book which sets Riley alongside Virginia Woolf, confirming her as one of the most profound poetic thinkers of our time (Deryn Rees-Jones)
Very occasionally, and always at the right time, an Angel of Poetry appears, holding up a light (Carol Ann Duffy, former UK Poet Laureate)
A much-needed reminder of inspiration’s independence, A Chorus of Ears gently resets the coordinates of contemporary poetry away from the mechanical and literal-minded. My repeated thought on reading it was ‘Oh thank goodness for Denise Riley’ (Leontia Flynn)
Daring intellectually and sensitively tuned to the interiority of the poem and its making. [A Chorus of Ears] asks us to think again about ‘voice’ in poetry, finding language to articulate the difficult borderland between an inner listening and the already said, the living and the dead (Linda Anderson, author of Elizabeth Bishop: Lines of Connection)
Her strengths are so varied: notice one quality you admire, and another follows hard behind. Riley is an enormously gifted writer (Fiona Sampson)
One of the most eloquent thinkers about our life in language
Wondrous . . . one of the great poets of our time
