HILL, Geoffrey (Sir Geoffrey William), 1932-2016 : MERCIAN HYMNS. London : André Deutsch, (1971). First edition : the rare hardback issue. The winner of the inaugural Whitbread Award for Poetry. A collection of thirty “prose-hymns”, all previously unpublished, with notes on King Offa, etc., and an introduction by C. H. Sisson. “These brilliantly exact verbal organizations are typical of the book: the activities of Mercia — coining, hammering, carving — are, first of all, the qualities of Mr Hill’s own poetic technique, so that style matches theme in a striking congruency” (TLS review). £200 To purchase, call us or e-mail us at books@ashrare.com quoting stock number 45015 – or simply click on the button
