Braided River is a selection from forty years of published poems plus some of my most recent, uncollected work. It describes a lifetime's endeavours to write poems that reflect a thinking and feeling person's twentieth century existence in Europe and America - in love and sorrow, and even, still, some hope for the future of the world at large.
