A Bemerton Anthology: poems of George Herbert and Barbara Murray - Paperback
by Guy Ottewell (Introduction by), Barbara Murray (Author)
Eleven poems of George Herbert selected by Barbara Murray, and twenty-two poems by Barbara herself. With drawings by Guy Ottewell of Bemerton near Salisbury in England, where George Herbert was parish priest from 1630 to 1633."Most of [Barbara Murray's] poems are, as true poetry is, driven by real feeling and crafted out of surprisingly found words. The first few . . . seem the most necessitated, meant, in any language; beside them, many other poems seem to be acts of play that could have been left undone."
Author Biography
Barbara Murray, who died in August 2014, was an inspired and beloved teacher of children by the Montessori method, and she was a great deal more. She wished to create a small volume of the religious poems of George Herbert. This book is a realization of her wish, but her own poems are well worth adding to it.
