‘He seeks to contain multitudes’, commented one reviewer of John Stammers’ poetry, and in this long-awaited fourth collection Stammers’ restlessly eclectic range is very much in evidence. Here are poems of technical surprise alongside those of candid tenderness; poems that set love and love-making within a wider emotional and intellectual context. Here are epistemological meditations that nonetheless preserve the ‘essential gaudiness’ of poetry; and elegies for artist friends that consider the ephemeral nature of fame and charisma.

In it, she brought the Dove Cottage years to vivid and intimate life. She noted the walks and weather, the friends, country neighbours, and travellers on the roads. She set down accounts of the garden, of Wordsworth's marriage, their concern for Coleridge, and the composition of Wordsworth's poetry.
